Dark Chocolate Pots de Creme - can they be

[pastryani]

Turned into dark chocolate ice cream??  I made some for turkey day but made too many.  They are super rich, and contain cream, milk, eggs...so they’re kind of like an anglaise but baked instead of cooked... just wondering if they can be churned successfully?

I think so.  You might need to thin it down with milk or add a bit of sugar, but might as well experiment.

Hmm good point about thinning it down, thx!  I’d hate to have to add more sugar since ice creams are usually too sweet for me.

Put a stick in 'em, toss 'em in the freezer and have homemade pudding pops.  

I agree with pastrygirl, thin with milk and give 'em a spin. Should be fine straight out of the machine, might get a bit hard and/or icy in the freezer depending on the sugar/solids level in your PdC.
