Take the ice cream out 10–15 minutes before serving so it scoops easily.
💡 Chef's Tip
For an even creamier texture, stir the mixture every 45 minutes during the first two hours of freezing to break up ice crystals. Use 70% dark chocolate for a bold flavour, or milk chocolate if you prefer it sweeter.
