New York Super Fudge Chunk
1/4 cup coarsely chopped white chocolate 1/4 cup coarsely chopped semisweet chocolate 1/4 cup chopped pecan halves 1/4 cup coarsely chopped walnuts 1/4 cup halved chocolate covered almonds 4 oz unsweetened chocolate 1 cup milk 2 large eggs 1 cup sugar 1 cup heavy or whipping cream 1 tsp vanilla extract 1 pinch salt
Combine the coarsely chopped chocolates, pecans, walnuts, and chocolate covered almonds in a bowl, cover, and refrigerate.
Melt the unsweetened chocolate in the top of a double boiler over hot, not boiling, water. Whisk in the milk, a little at a time, and heat, stirring constantly, until smooth. Remove from the heat and let cool.
Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the sugar, a little at a time, then continue whisking until completely blended, about 1 minute more. Add the cream, vanilla, and salt and whisk to blend.
Pour the chocolate mixture into the cream mixture and blend. Cover and refrigerate until cold, about 1 to 3 hours, depending on your refrigerator.
Transfer the cream mixture to an ice cream maker and freeze following the manufacturer's instructions.
After the ice cream stiffens (about 2 minutes before it is done), add the chocolates and nuts, then continue freezing until the ice cream is ready.
Makes 1 generous quart.
