Mocha Madness Ice Cream Recipes

Steps:

• In a large heavy saucepan, combine the sugar, cocoa, flour, coffee and salt. Gradually add milk and eggs; stir until smooth. Cook and stir over medium-low heat until mixture is thick enough to coat a metal spoon and reaches 160°, about 15 minutes. Refrigerate until chilled. Stir in the remaining in the remaining ingredients. Fill ice cream freezer cylinder two-thirds full; freeze according to manufacturer's instructions. Refrigerate remaining mixture until ready to freeze. Remove from the freezer 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Mix heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, espresso, and chocolate syrup in a bowl until sugar is dissolved. Refrigerate until chilled.
• Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's directions until it reaches "soft-serve" consistency. Stir in almonds and dark chocolate. Serve soft ice cream or transfer ice cream to a one- or 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.

Steps:

• Blend cookies in processor until finely ground. Add melted butter; process until crumbs are moistened. Press crumb mixture onto bottom of 9-inch-diameter springform pan with 2 3/4-inch-high sides. Freeze until firm, about 10 minutes.
• Place ice cream in large bowl. Finely chop coffee beans in processor. Add to bowl with ice cream; stir until well blended. Transfer ice cream mixture to crust-lined pan. Smooth top. Cover with plastic wrap. Freeze overnight.
• Combine whipping cream and vanilla in another large bowl. Sift powdered sugar and cocoa over. Using electric mixer, beat until soft peaks form. Spread mixture over top of cake. Freeze until cream is set, at least 1 hour. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover; keep frozen.) Sprinkle chocolate shavings over top of cake. Run knife between pan sides and cake to loosen. Remove pan sides. Using small metal spatula or knife, smooth cake sides. Let cake stand at cool room temperature 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Whisk or mix together the milk, sugar, espresso powder, and cocoa till the sugar has dissolved.
• Stir in the heavy cream and vanilla.
• Freeze in ice cream maker according to manufacturer's directions.
• Stir cookie bits into soft ice cream, and serve immediately.
• For firmer ice cream, place in a covered container. Place in the freezer for 2 to 3 hours, until ice cream is as hard as you like it. Note: Freezing longer than this will make the ice cream rock hard; plan on softening at room temperature for 15-20 minutes or so before serving, if the ice cream has been in the freezer longer than a few hours.
• Don't have an ice cream maker? Simply pour the chilled mocha cream into a bowl, place the bowl in the freezer, uncovered, and stir the cream every hour. After about 4 hours or so, it'll be soft-serve consistency. Continue to stir and freeze till it's the consistency you like. While it won't be as creamy as churned ice cream, it'll be absolutely delicious. After 6 or more hours in the freezer, it'll become quite hard. To serve, simply remove from the freezer for 15 minutes or so, to soften it enough to make it "scoopable.".

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Coat a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray and set aside.
• In an electric mixer, combine the flour, 1/4 cup cocoa, sugar, baking soda, salt, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, coffee grounds, walnuts, chocolate morsels, and butterscotch morsels and mix until combined.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the instant coffee and warm water. Add the eggs and 2 tablespoons of Kahlua and mix until thoroughly combined. Add egg mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until fully incorporated, forming a thick dough. Transfer dough to the springform pan, press to cover the surface evenly, and bake until firm and set, about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and with a fork poke holes all over it. With a pastry brush, brush the remaining 2 tablespoons Kahlua over the warm crust. Repeat the same process with the chocolate sauce. Allow the crust to cool completely. Once cool, top with the ice cream and smooth out. Top with the whipped topping and smooth out. Place in the freezer and allow to freeze completely. Serve dusted with cinnamon and cocoa and a tiny drizzle of chocolate sauce.

Steps:

• Melt chocolate in a double boiler or heat-resistant bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water. Add condensed milk and stir for 5 minutes. Add cold-brewed coffee and mix well. Chill.
• Whip cream, add vanilla and fold into chilled chocolate mixture. Pour into an airtight container and chill in freezer for an hour.
• Churn cold mixture in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Pour into an airtight container and freeze until hard. The ice cream will keep for up to a week in the freezer.

Steps:

• Pour coffee into ice cube tray. Freeze until solid, or overnight.
• In a blender, combine coffee ice cubes, milk, chocolate syrup and sugar. Blend until smooth. Pour into glasses and serve.
