Method

  1. 1

    Chill. In a big, heavy saucepan beat together egg yolks and cocoa till very smooth and no lumps remain. Slowly beat in sugar. Beat in 1 or of cream to make a (2 tablespoons) smooth paste if mixture is too dry. Beat in leftover cream and milk once the yolk paste is smooth plus all the sugar is incorporated. Put pan over a mid-sized flame and cook, beating often, till a custard thickly coats this back of a spoon, yet a swiped finger leaves a clean line. Strain in an airtight container, mix in vanilla and salt, and chill in fridge overnight. This next day, churn in ice cream maker according in order to manufacturer's instructions. Move ice cream in order in order to one container capable of holding 2 quarts or larger, plus quickly mix in nuts, chocolates, and marshmallows using a rubber spatula till well mixed in. Put in the fridge in freezer for no less than 3 hours before serving.
