Indulge in the creamy and decadent flavor of this homemade dark chocolate gelato, perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth.
In a saucepan, combine the milk and cream, and heat over medium heat until warm.
Stir occasionally to prevent the milk from scorching.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, egg yolks, and salt until smooth and pale.
Whisking the yolks and sugar thoroughly ensures a smooth custard base.
Gradually pour the warm milk mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly.
Adding the milk slowly prevents the eggs from curdling.
Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens slightly.
The mixture is ready when it coats the back of a spoon.
Remove from heat and stir in the chopped dark chocolate and vanilla extract until smooth.
Ensure the chocolate is fully melted for a uniform flavor.
Cool the mixture to room temperature, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
Chilling the mixture thoroughly improves the texture of the gelato.
Churn the mixture in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Do not overfill the ice cream maker to allow proper churning.
Transfer the gelato to a container and freeze until firm before serving.
Cover the container with plastic wrap to prevent ice crystals from forming.
