1/4 Cup white chocolate -- chop coarse
1/4 Cup semisweet chocolate -- chop
1/4 Cup pecan halves -- chopped
1/4 Cup walnuts -- chop coarse
1/4 Cup chocolate covered almonds
- cut in half
4 Ounces unsweetened chocolate
1 Cup milk
2 Large eggs
1 Cup sugar
1 Cup heavy or whipping cream
1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
1 Pinch salt
Combine the coarsely chopped chocolate, 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, 1-2 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 1-3 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 chocolate and nuts, then continue freezing until the ice cream is ready. Makes one Generous Quart.
