Cooking for my Birthday Part I

After spending a good chunk of the morning cleaning the fridge and then going through the book again and marking the final candidates, I've moved on to the first one to get made.

Dark Chocolate Ice Cream (p 71 Essence of Chocolate: Recipes for Baking and Cooking with Fine Chocolate) is first up...have to go get the first ingredient I don't have from the store (whole milk or cream). I think I may double it since it only serves 4.
