  • About

This grown-up chocolate ice cream, Glâce ‘Express’ au Chocolat, is from Janick Gestin of Laillé. Serve with your favourite toppings; chocolate curls, crème Chantilly, iced Kahlua or toasted almonds.

Ingredients

  • 150 g dark or milk chocolate (70 per cent cocoa)
  • 250 ml milk

Method

Break the chocolate into small pieces and place in a saucepan with the milk and Kahlua. Set over a low heat and stir until the chocolate has melted. Remove from the heat.

Place the egg and egg yolks with the sugar and cornflour in a heatproof bowl and beat until creamy and fluffy using an electric whisk. Pour in the melted chocolate and whisk well. Make a bain-marie and heat the mixture
