  Made half the quantity which was plenty. Very rich but much better than even the quality shop bought ice creams. Highly recommended.

  Made this with half cream and half milk as I wanted to use up the cream, it worked brilliantly. Used an ice cream maker and it was super creamy. Have made lots of good food ice cream recipes, this is the richest.Try the blueberry and lime one you wont regret it! The ultimate vanilla ice cream is also pretty good.

  Hi all, Made this today it was very rich chocolaty and scrumptious. I had this with the jaffa drizzle loaf and complimented it very well. Two small scoops was the right quantity, I halved the recipe and was plenty for 8 portions. Would recommend to all you dark chocolate lovers everywhere :)

  I think that the stage where you heat the mixture through to make it into a custard mixture must've been missed out. I made half of the quantity as instructed and the texture of the ice cream was gritty. I then cooked the other half through to thicken it into a custard before freezing (at the end of stage 2) and it came out very smooth and creamy and delicious. A good recipe, but as often happens on this website, the instructions could be better.

  Great recipe. I used half milk and half cream and it tasted even better. Can add brownies or marshmallows to vary it a bit. I served the ice cream with fresh strawberries and everyone loved it.
