water |
|
| ½ cup |
|
pecan halves |
|
| ½ cup |
|
roasted almonds, salted, whole |
|
| ½ cup |
|
semisweet chocolate chips |
|
| 2 oz |
|
unsweetened chocolate |
|
| 1/3 cup |
|
unsweetened cocoa powder |
|
| 1 ½ cups |
|
milk |
|
| 1 cup |
|
sugar |

|
|
| |
| 1 |
Soak the raisins in 1 cup water overnight in the refrigerator. |
| 2 |
The next day, drain the raisins well and combine them with the pecans, almonds and chocolate chips in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate. |
| 3 |
Melt the unsweetened chocolate in the top of a double boiler over hot, not boiling, water. Gradually whisk in the cocoa and heat, stirring constantly, until smooth. (If the chocolate clumps or "seizes", don't worry - the milk will dissolve it). Whisk in the milk, a little at a time, and heat until blended. Remove from the heat and let cool. |
| 4 |
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. Pour in the cream and vanilla, 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. |
| 5 |
Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and freeze following the manufacturer's directions. |
| 6 |
After the ice cream stiffens (about 2 minutes before it is done), add the raisin mixture, then continue freezing until done. |
