Oh yes, this is a decadent dessert. Don't you wish these were all fat free too? I do... because then I would eat this for every meal.
(I adapted this recipe from a recipe on www.allrecipes.com).
Ingredients:
-1 bag semi-sweet (or milk chocolate) chocolate chips
-3 Tablespoons butter
-4 Tablespoons sugar
-2/3 cups water
-Yolks from 5 medium eggs
-1 pint heavy whipping cream
Directions:
In a microwave, heat chocolate, 1/4 cup water and butter until melted. Set aside bowl and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
In a small heavy saucepan, whisk egg yolks, sugar, and remaining water. Cook and stir over low heat until mixture reaches 160* F, about 1-2 minutes (I didn't use a thermometer, but just don't let it get too hot). Remove from heat; whisk in chocolate mixture.
Set saucepan in freezer (or in a bowl of ice) and stir until cooled, about 5-10 minutes.
While that's cooling, beat the heavy whipping cream in a cold bowl until it's the consistency of room-temperature butter.
Fold in whipped cream into the chocolate mixture.
Refrigerate 4 hours or overnight. You can also freeze it and it makes something even better than ice cream!
