Ingredients
- 2 cups Heavy Cream
- 2 cups Half-and-half
- 1/2 cups Brown Sugar
- 1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 cup Cocoa Powder
- 1 pinch Salt
- 5 whole Egg Yolks
- 1/2 cups White Sugar
- 1 cup Pretzel Pieces
Method
- In a saucepan over medium-low heat, whisk together cream, milk (or half and half), brown sugar, vanilla, cocoa and a pinch of salt. Bring the mixture just to a boil.
- While the cream mixture is heating, use an immersion blender to whip the egg yolks and white sugar until it's pale and thick.
- Whisking the cream mixture constantly, slowly pour in the egg mixture until it's well combined. (I used the immersion blender for this as well.)
- Allow the mixture to thicken over the heat for a couple minutes.
- Then, strain the mixture to eliminate any clumps and place in an airtight container. Put it into the refrigerator for a few hours, until completely chilled. (If you are in a hurry, place in the freezer for 1 hour-don't forget about it!)
- Once the mixture is chilled, pour it into an ice cream maker and churn for 20+ minutes to the desired consistency. Finally pour in the pretzel pieces and churn another minute.
- Serve immediately or place in the freezer to harden.
- Makes 6 cups of heaven.
