I used E.Guittard cocoa rouge dutch processed cocoa powder - the ice cream is silky and rich and oh so tasty. I also added chopped toasted almonds.... next time I might add some mini marshmallows to create a kind of rocky roadUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16745324479672705878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2434548298509198554.post-44240482864031102272010-03-18T16:28:39.457-07:002010-03-18T16:28:39.457-07:00Possibly the yummiest-sounding morsel I've see...Possibly the yummiest-sounding morsel I've seen on your blog yet!

I should of used dutch (The Aussie type has too strong of a molasses flavor) because the stuff I used just isn't licorice-y enough.<br /><br />Just for fun, with one batch I should use that salty, ammonia edged dutch licorice.

Biscotti and chocolate chip cookies do sound good. <br /><br />As for the ice cream's flavor with one tablespoon of espresso powder, that amount provides a good balance between chocolate and coffee for a quart of ice cream (particularly with the addition of the chocolate covered coffee beans). Of course, you can always add more or less to taste before pouring it into your ice cream maker.Ms. Humblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06960224421093634330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2434548298509198554.post-62226063353757140442010-03-16T12:40:48.781-07:002010-03-16T12:40:48.781-07:00mmm. i might have to try this one and all for me!...mmm. i might have to try this one and all for me! my own container of dark chocolate covered beans sit in my desk drawer here at work. good for an afternoon pick-me-up.silversmithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01095752445486289081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2434548298509198554.post-50231223083171944862010-03-16T12:39:49.207-07:002010-03-16T12:39:49.207-07:00How would chocolate covered espresso beans taste i...How would chocolate covered espresso beans taste in a traditional chocolate chip cookie recipe? They could replace the choc chips and would work nicely with the sugary cookie.<br />Get well!<br />PS on Pi Day. One time in 7th grade, my now 18 year old daughter took 2 pumpkin pies to school to celebrate Pi Day. Her Math teacher put them in the teacher's lounge for safe keeping. Before their Math class could even enjoy them,one of the PE teachers came in the teacher's lounge and devoured almost an entire pie. She never forgave him and remembers the event every March 14.
