My previous attempt at ice cream was not too successful, I lost patience with having to stir it regularly for hours to break up the ice crystals so it became too hard and the flavours weren't right. To be honest, this is second try is not really ice-cream, more like a frozen pudding, the end result is much smoother and denser than ice-cream, but until I get an ice-cream maker, it will do quite nicely. Of course, the condensed milk makes this very sweet and I recommend a chocolate with a high cocoa content so that you get a more chocolatey and less sugary end result. The treacle or molasses adds a great depth and nice liquorice aftertaste. This makes enough for two, I put them in two separate plastic containers as individual servings.
1 can of condensed milk
Fresh milk – enough to fill the empty condensed milk can
90g of dark chocolate
2 dessertspoons of treacle/blackstrap molasses
- Combine the milk and condensed milk in a pan over a moderate heat
- Add the chocolate broken into pieces
- Stir until melted
- Add the treacle and blend well
- Continue to heat the mixture until you have all the ingredients combined well with no streaks
- Simmer for a few minutes
- Pour into you plastic container or containers
- Wait for it to cool before popping into the freezer
Leave for at least 6 hours
