Rocky Road Ice-Cream by Chef Tarla Dalal

Tarla Dalal Darpan, 25 Jan, 2014
  • Rocky Road Ice-Cream by Chef Tarla Dalal
An American innovation, this flavour gets its name from the crunchy almonds, walnuts and chewy marshmallows that add a deliciously unusual element to the otherwise smooth texture of ice-cream. Bring out your largest serving spoon; your little devils are sure to ask for large helpings of this “bumpy” creation.
 
Ingredients
 
1 cup grated chocolate
1 can (400 grams) condensed milk
1 cup water
2 cups (400 grams) fresh cream
1/4 cup walnut
1/4 cup chopped almonds
1/4 cup chocolate chips
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/3 cup small marshmallows
 
Method
 
1. Combine the chocolate and condensed milk in a pan and melt over a slow flame till the chocolate melts completely.
 
2. Allow it to cool slightly, add water and mix well. Cool completely.
 
3. Add the cream and vanilla essence and mix again. Blend this mixture in a blender if necessary, to ensure that it is smooth.
 
4. Pour into a shallow container and cover and freeze until it is almost set.
 
5. Divide the mixture into 2 parts and churn each portion in a blender.
 
6. Add the walnuts, almonds, chocolate chips and marshmallows and gently stir them in.
 
7. Transfer into a shallow container, cover and freeze until it is set. Scoop and serve.
