For all you chocolate lovers out there.

Hello everyone, there are times that you discover a new idea from from a old one. I found a recipe for a chocolate sour cream cake, which I will post after I have a chance to make it and try it out. But this is a recipe for chocolate sour cream  ice cream, which I have made. Now this is ice cream is not sweet as you may think, though it does contain honey and sugar, the main focus is on how the chocolate and sour cream work together. If you do plan to make this you can get Ghirardelli chocolate at a local store and use Hershey's coco power for this recipe, make sure you use the 60% cocoa semi-sweet chocolate. So here it is enjoy and see you next time.

ingredients 

4 oz semi-sweet 60 % cocoa chocolate
3 egg yolks
45 grams of honey
1 cup sour cream
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup milk
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tbls vanilla extract
1 tbls cocoa powder

instructions 

1. Heat milk and cream together. When it reaches 178 F take off the heat, add the honey and both the           powdered and the semi-sweet chocolate and stir until the chocolate is fully mixed in with the milk.
2. Mix together the yolks, sugar,vanilla, and sour cream into a bowl until fully incorporated.
3. Combine the two mixtures, the hot milk into the egg yolk mixture slowly mixing with a whisk the entire time.
4. Cool the ice cream base to 40 F in the refrigerator. When it reaches 40 F, pour into your ice cream maker and spin for 25 to 30 minutes.
