This recipe is an adaptation of the vanilla ice cream recipe from Nourishing Traditions.

• 2 whole eggs
• 4 egg yolks
• 1 1/2 cups maple syrup
• 2 tablespoons vanilla
• 2 tablespoons arrowroot
• 6 cups (3 pints) heavy cream (not ultra-pasteurized)
• 1 cup cocoa powder (I use AH!laska brand )

Beat eggs and yolks. Mix all the other ingredients together in a large bowl.

Follow the directions that came with your ice cream maker. I usually let it churn for about 5 minutes before I start adding ice.

NOTE: using a couple whole eggs seems to make the ice cream a little fluffier than the original recipe (which only used yolks).
