Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325ðF (165ðC). Spread hazelnuts on a baking sheet and toast for 10-12 minutes until fragrant and skins crackle.
  2. Wrap warm hazelnuts in a clean kitchen towel and rub vigorously to remove skins. Lightly crush the skinned hazelnuts with a rolling pin or knife.
  3. In a small saucepan, gently heat raspberries over medium-low heat for 2-3 minutes until soft and juicy. Mash lightly with a fork, leaving some texture.
  4. Chop semi-sweet chocolate into small pieces. Place chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler) and melt slowly, stirring until smooth.
  5. Stir the mashed raspberries into the melted chocolate mixture. Let cool to room temperature.
  6. In a separate bowl, combine your ice cream base ingredients (typically heavy cream, milk, sugar, and egg yolks if using a custard base) and chill thoroughly.
  7. Fold the chocolate-raspberry mixture and crushed toasted hazelnuts into the chilled ice cream base.
  8. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer's instructions until thick and creamy.
  9. Transfer the churned ice cream to a freezer-safe container. Freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm before serving.
