Guinness Double Chocolate Chunk Ice Cream Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

The base of this ice cream is a creamy, boozy, Guinness spiked dream!

Guinness Double Chocolate Chunk Ice CreamIt’s SUPER creamy thanks to a ton of egg yolks, cream, milk, and (of course!) Guinness. Oh. And when I say a ton of egg yolks, I mean it! There are 14 in this recipe. Yes. 14!!! But please trust me that you don’t want to skip any of them. I tested this recipe with less and it was just not creamy enough. So yeah… 14 – it’s the golden number!

Guinness Double Chocolate Chunk Ice CreamI also swirled in shaved white and dark chocolate chunks. I made some super thin and melt-in-your-mouth papery, while leaving others chunky and completely un-subtle – the combo just works!

Guinness Double Chocolate Chunk Ice Cream

Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups Guinness Stout
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 14 egg yolks
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup dark chocolate, chopped
  • 1 cup white chocolate, chopped

Instructions

  1. In a large sauce combine guinness, cream, and milk. Bring mixture to JUST a boil, then remove from heat.
  2. In a large bowl beat together egg yolks and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add a small amount of the hot guinness mixture to the eggs and whisk it quickly together (to temper the eggs), then carefully pour the remaining guinness mixture into the egg mixture, whisking to incorporate.
  3. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and heat over medium-low - whisking constantly - until the mixtures thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. Do NOT let the mixture come to a boil or it will curdle.
  4. Once thickened remove pan from heat, and stir in vanilla. Pour the custard into a large heat proof bowl, cover with saran wrap touching down to the custard (to prevent skin from forming), and place bowl in the fridge for at least 3 hours.
  5. When ready, pour custard in your ice cream maker and freeze according to your machines instructions.
  6. Once it's finished churning, stir in chocolate chunks. Transfer ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 6 hours.
