Directions
-
Break the Milky Way candy bars into small pieces to help them melt evenly.
-
In a double boiler, combine the candy bar pieces with half of the whipping cream.
-
Heat gently, stirring constantly, until the candy is completely melted and smooth.
-
In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs until frothy.
-
Gradually pour the remaining whipping cream into the beaten eggs, whisking continuously to combine.
-
Slowly pour the egg and cream mixture into the melted chocolate mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs and prevent curdling.
-
Cook the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly, for 5 minutes to thicken slightly and cook the eggs.
-
Remove from heat and let the chocolate mixture cool to room temperature.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and instant vanilla pudding mix until smooth.
-
Once the chocolate mixture has cooled, fold the milk and pudding mixture into it gently but thoroughly.
-
Cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for several hours or overnight until completely chilled.
-
Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions.
-
Transfer the churned ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 4 hours to firm up before serving.
