Stout Recipe ♯ Bittersweet Chocolate and Stout Beer Ice Cream

This is a very rich, creamy and grown up frozen treat. It's simple to make and sure to impress your guests. For a true Irish treat, drizzle it with Irish cream just before serving.

Ingredients

• 1 pint heavy cream
• 1 (11.5 ounce) package bittersweet chocolate chips
• ¾ cup sugar
• 1 pint stout beer (such as Guinness®)

Cooking Directions

1. Heat the heavy cream in a saucepan over medium-low heat until it begins to bubble. Remove from the heat and stir in the chocolate and sugar until melted. Slowly stir in the stout beer. Cover and refrigerate until completely cooled.
2. Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's directions until it reaches "soft-serve" consistency. Transfer ice cream to a two-quart lidded plastic container; cover surface with plastic wrap and seal. For best results, ice cream should ripen in the freezer for at least 2 hours or overnight.
