How to Make Cherry And Dark Chocolate Ice Cream

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 large egg yolks and 1/2 cup granulated sugar until pale and thick (about 3-5 minutes).
  2. Gradually whisk in 2 cups heavy cream, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/2 teaspoon almond extract. Whisk until well combined.
  3. Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions (approximately 20-30 minutes).
  4. During the last 2 minutes of churning, add 1 cup dark chocolate chunks (roughly chopped) and 1 cup pitted fresh cherries (halved if large).
  5. Once churning is complete, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to allow it to fully harden before serving. Enjoy immediately from the ice cream maker for a softer texture!
