• 5 Tbsp Sugar (=65 g)
• Juice of ½ lemon (=36 g)
• ¾ tsp Tahitian Vanilla (=3.3 g)

Instructions

 

Chocolate

1. Combine the butter and the chocolate chips in a glass microwave safe bowl. Heat in microwave till melted (approximately 15-30 seconds), stir together until well blended and all lumps are gone.
2. Pour onto silicone mat on cookie sheet and place in freezer until frozen very solid.
3. Remove from silicone mat and place on cutting board. Cut into pea-sized chunks. This must be done quickly as the chocolate/butter mixture will soften and melt at room temperature. Immediately return chocolate chunks to freezer and reserve for later.

Raspberry Flavor

1. If using frozen raspberries, thaw raspberries slightly in microwave. Mash raspberries with a potato masher. Add other Raspberry Flavor ingredients, mix well. Refrigerate for several hours.
2. Use strainer and metal spoon to separate berry juice from pulp and seeds. Reserve raspberry pulp and seeds for later.

Ice Cream Base Mix

1. Put base mix ingredients except whipping cream in blender.
2. Add strained Raspberry juice but not pulp or seeds. Blend on High for 1 minute.
3. Add whipping cream. Blend on Medium setting for 30 seconds.
4. Freeze in ice cream machine.

Combine

1. After ice cream is frozen, add raspberry pulp and seeds to ice cream freezer during the last minute of freezing.
2. After ice cream is frozen, put it in a bowl and gently fold in the chocolate chunks.
