3 cups heavy cream
2 large eggs
2 large egg yolks
3/4 cup Dutch process unsweetened cocoa powder
3/4 cup granular sugar substitute
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1. Pour heavy cream into a heavy-bottomed 3-quart
saucepan and place over medium heat. Bring to a low
boil, stirring often so the cream does not boil over.
Remove from heat.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, yolks, cocoa
powder, sugar substitute and salt. With an electric mixer
on medium, beat together until thickened and smooth, 2
to 3 minutes, scraping sides of bowl with a rubber
spatula.
3. Using a ladle, remove about a cup of the hot cream from
the pan, and gradually whisk into egg mixture (this
tempers the eggs so they wont curdle). Whisking, pour
tempered egg mixture into remaining cream in
saucepan. Place over medium heat and whisk until
slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour into a clean
bowl, whisk in vanilla and almond extracts and let stand
until custard is cooled to room temperature, about 1 1/2
hours. Refrigerate 2 hours, until well chilled, or cover
with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
4. Freeze in ice cream maker according to manufacturers
directions. When freezing process is complete, serve
immediately for soft serve ice cream, or for firm ice
cream, place in an airtight container and freeze 2 to 4
hours or overnight. (Can be stored in the freezer up to 1
month.)
This rich chocolate ice cream is a wonderful way to satisfy the
sweet tooth of the Induction crowd. When youre ready to move
on to phase 2 (Ongoing Weight Loss), you can add in the wafer
crisp bars to create a true chocoholics delight and savor our
sundae recipe below.
