Oh my mouth is watering for these delightful looking treats of summer! I've had an ice cream machine for awhile now, but my ice cream is always rock hard and I can't ever get it just right, so I'm really excited to try this recipe! I don't usually use eggs in my base but a can of sweetened condensed milk, so if adding alcohol would help to soften it, that would be wonderful! My favorite homemade ice cream has softened cinnamon bits in it which would be wonderful sandwiched with this chocolate outside! Joni: the eggs certainly add an unctuous, creamy quality to the ice cream. You can try adding a touch of alcohol to your custard--I'd start with 2 Tbs and see how that helps keep it soft. Happy Ice Cream Making! Kim@KAF
