Cherry Garcia Ice Cream


Prep Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:

1/4 cup shaved plain chocolate (Hershey's Special Dark Chocolate sweet bars preferred)
1/4 cup fresh Bing cherries, halved and pitted (you may use canned cherries, but be definite to drain the syrup)
two large eggs
3/4 cup sugar
two cups heavy or whipping cream
one cup milk

Preparation:

Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy, one to two minutes. Whisk in the sugar, a little at a time, then continue whisking until blended, about one minute more. Pour in the cream and milk and whisk to blend.

Place the shaved chocolate flakes and the cherries in separate bowls. Cover and refrigerate.

Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and freeze following the manufacturer's instructions.

After the ice cream stiffens (about two minutes before it is done), add the chocolate and the cherries, then continue freezing until the ice cream is prepared.

Yield: one quart
