When Chocolate Malt on it’s own isn’t enough, make yourself a batch of Chocolate Malt Ice Cream!
Chocolate is a gift from God! Seriously!
This Chocolate Malt Ice Cream is the stuff.
When it comes to ice cream, this is the kind of stuff that I try to hide from my kids so I don’t have to share it with them. But still, they find out and with a brave face, I share.
One thing you will always find in my pantry is a secret stash of chocolate, usually the really darkest of dark chocolate. Right now, I have 3 hefty bars of 99% and 100% chocolate, and a half box of Raisinets. Also, thanks to this recipe, I have an almost empty container of malted milk balls, wait, no – it’s now empty. All of them are carefully hidden and nope, I’m not telling where.
What is it about ice cream? The creamy, dreaminess that’s been frozen into a scoop of crazy madness that we have fallen for since we were kids. Ice cream speaks every language. It can take on some of the simplest to the most complex of ingredients and make us smile. Making your own ice cream is just as fun as you would anticipate. You can mix all sorts of goodies, even sweet and savory ingredients can be anchored into a quart of this stuff.

I do enjoy experimenting with all sorts of ingredients. Still I find myself heavily leaning towards chocolate flavored ice creams. Due to my leanings, and in honor of one of my childhood favorite candies –
I give you Chocolate Malt Ice Cream.
