Method
step 1
Whisk the egg yolks and sugar with electric beaters until very thick and pale.
step 2
Pour the milk into a saucepan, add the chocolate and cocoa and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly until blended. Pour over the yolk mixture when still hot, beating all the time.
step 3
Pour the chocolate mix into an ice-cream maker and churn until frozen, or pour into a container and freeze for 2-3 hours until beginning to firm up then whisk thoroughly to break up any crystals. Freeze until solid. Leave to soften in the fridge for 20-30 minutes before serving.
