Ingredients
1/2 cup strong brewed coffee
1 cup Horizon Heavy Cream
1 1/2 cups Horizon Half & Half
1 tsp instant espresso powder
4 egg yolks
1/2 cup confectioner”s Swerve sweetener
1/2 tsp vanilla liquid stevia
1/8 tsp salt
1 tbsp vodka optional
2 ounces coarsely chopped 85% dark chocolate
2 tbsp crushed coffee beans
Instructions
Whisk the first 4 ingredients together in a saucepan over medium low heat until simmering, but do not boil.
In a bowl stir together the egg yolks, Swerve, stevia and salt.
Pour a small amount of the cream mixture into the egg mixture to temper it then gradually add the remaining egg mixture into the sauce pan on the stove.
Bring this to a boil, reduce to simmer, constantly stirring until mixture thickens and coats the back of the spoon, 175 degrees F.
Once thickened, pour into a clean bowl and allow to cool for 30 minutes.
Cover and place in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours.
Once cooled, stir in vodka if using, then pour this into an ice cream machine and follow manufacturers instructions.
I used my KitchenAid ice cream attachment and it took about 20 minutes for the texture of soft serve ice cream.
When done, remove to a bowl and stir in chocolate and coffee beans. Pour into a container of choice and freeze for 3 hours or over night.
Allow to sit on counter to soften for about an hour before serving.
