Deliciously rich and creamy. If served fresh it’s a classic frozen chocolate custard, if allowed to freeze longer it’s the exact taste and texture of a fudge-cicle!

Frozen Chocolate Custard
A delicious treat for a hot day or a special occasion.
In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, whisk egg yolks, sugar, corn syrup, and cocoa powder. Whisk in cream and milk until mixture is fully incorporated.
Place pot over medium-low heat and cook, whisking regularly, until a custard forms. (To test: dip a spoon in mixture and a custard should stick to the spoon. A finger swiped across the back of the spoon should leave a clean line)
Stir in salt and vanilla.
Strain custard through a fine mesh and chill in either an ice bath or refrigerator until it is very cold. Recommended to refrigerate overnight.
Churn in ice cream maker and serve right away, or freeze for 1 hour to let it firm up slightly. Serve custard within 2 hours of being made for soft-serve custard consistency. (Allow to freeze longer for fudge-cicle consistency)
