Freezing your fix

Coffee fans - where are you?  I know you're out there.  And chocolate fans, you too...

Here's heaven in frozen form for you.  Make it this weekend - you'll be thanking me afterwards.

Is it obvious that I've been loving my ice cream maker?

Mocha Chip Ice Cream
from Cuisinart

1 cup whole milk, chilled
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons instant espresso
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 cups heavy cream, chilled
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

In a bowl, whisk together milk, sugar, espresso and cocoa until dissolved.  Stir in heavy cream and vanilla.

Pour mixture into ice cream maker bowl and mix until thick, about 25-30 minutes.  About 5 minutes before mixing is complete, add chocolate chips.

Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the freezer until firm (about 2 hours).
