New York Super Fudge Chunk

My daughter requested that I make homemade New York Super Fudge Chunk ice cream for her birthday - so I did.

I knew I needed to get good ingredients, since the Ben and Jerry's version contains White & Dark Fudge Chunks, Pecans, Walnuts & Fudge Covered Almonds - so I went to The Chocolatier in Exeter NH again (when I made "Box of Chocolates" ice cream).

They helped me pick out some chocolate fudge, plus some white-chocolate almond bark, and some chocolate pecan bark.

I made a rich chocolate base, and put the broken bark in near the end of the process. I added large chunks of fudge by hand as I was scooping it into the bowl and before putting it into the freezer.

It came out great!

Enjoy!

The Original Flavors I have created so far!

Here is a list of all the different homemade ice cream flavors I have made so far:

Strawberry Garcia - strawberry ice cream loaded with chocolate chips

French Vanilla Grapenut - simple but delicious

"Mud Season" - mocha ice cream (chocolate and coffee), chunks of Pepperidge Farms Brownie Cookies, a ripple of chocolate fudge and some crushed cookie crumbs to achieve the "dirt" effect!

Cinnamon Snickerdoodle Chunk - combining the delicious Snickerdoodle cookies from Pepperidge Farms with a Cinnamon ice cream base

"Box of Chocolates" - peanut-butter filled chocolate hearts, some dark chocolate, some milk chocolate all from the Chocolatier in Exeter NH - in a chocolate ice cream base

"Hershey's Almonds and Toffee Symphony bar" - think "Heath Bar Crunch" ice cream ...

Mocha Chocolate-chip - another simple but delicious combination!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Bar - wicked good!


"Apple Crisp" - one of my first creations - wow it's good!

"Chocolate-Raspberry-Chip" - an early combination


Enjoy!
