 Categories: I scream, Chocolate, Herbs, Dairy
      Yield: 3 Servings
 
      6 lg Egg yolks
    3/4 c  Sugar
      2 c  Whole milk
      2 c  Fresh mint leaves; loose
           - packed
      1 c  Heavy cream
      3 dr Green food coloring
      4 oz Bittersweet chocolate;
           - coarse chopped
      4 oz Semisweet chocolate; coarse
           - chopped
 
  SPECIAL EQUIPMENT: ice cream maker
  
  In large bowl, whisk together egg yolks and 1/2 cup
  sugar.
  
  In heavy medium saucepan over moderately low heat, stir
  together milk, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, and mint. Heat
  until steaming but not boiling, then remove from heat.
  
  Ladle about 1/2 cup hot milk mixture into egg yolk
  mixture, whisking constantly to prevent eggs from
  cooking, then slowly stir the egg mixture back into the
  hot milk, whisking constantly. Place over low heat, and
  cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens enough
  to coat back of spoon (finger drawn across spoon will
  leave clear path), 5 to 6 minutes total (do not let boil
  or custard will curdle). Strain through fine-mesh sieve
  into large bowl, pressing on and then discarding solids.
  Whisk in heavy cream and food coloring. Cover and chill
  until cold, at least 6 hours or overnight.
  
  Process custard in ice cream maker, adding chopped
  chocolate during last minute of churning. Transfer to
  airtight container and freeze until hard, about 3 hours.
  
  YIELD: Makes about 1 1/2 quarts
