This picture is of some chocolate ice cream covered in chocolate syrup (http://"http://www.rawpaleodietforum.com/display-your-culinary-creations/chocolate-syrup/"), and a dash of cinnamon powder and cacao powder. I made both vanilla and chocolate ice cream, but I ate up all the vanilla ice cream before I could get any pictures of it!
To make the chocolate and vanilla ice cream, I bought a pint of raw cream and a quart of raw milk, and used two of my old 2lb jars of honey that I washed out after finishing all the honey. I poured half the cream and half the milk in each jar, then mixed in about 3 - 4 ounces of raw honey mixed with either vanilla extract or cacao powder. I wanted extra-vanilla and extra-chocolate tasting ice cream, so I added a lot of vanilla extract and cacao powder, but if you don't want such intense flavour or so much sweetness, you can add in less honey and flavour. I mixed the ice cream really well, but I am inpatient so I didn't mix it for long. It probably would have came out creamier if I had churned it for much longer, or used less milk, and if you have the time, you should churn it for as long as you can. I kept most of the stuff chilled while I did this, because I live in southern california so it's always pretty hot here, so I kept the jars in ice while I was mixing. Then I put them in the freezer and left them overnight! Ta da, vanilla and chocolate ice cream.

It looks beautiful. I should try to make some tomorrow. I'll see if I have some decent cream. I wonder why the local Christian grassfed farms and why the Amish farms only use maple syrup instead of honey in their raw ice creams. I thought it was the texture, but your texture looks perfect!

I didn't know you could use raw egg yolks in ice cream, none of the recipes I looked at called for egg yolks.. maybe I will try adding them next time I make ice cream.
the texture of my raw chocolate ice cream was a bit crunchy actually, but i think it is because if the milk.. the milk was a lot more watery than the cream, and so the water in the milk froze into crunchy flakes in the ice cream. When I made ice cream with only cream and no milk, I didn't have that problem. It still tasted good even with the crunchy ice texture, though.. just seemed slightly more like a popsicle than creamy ice cream, which is why I mentioned to churn it more.. so that it could come closer to the texture of butter before freezing it, that would make a very creamy ice cream I think.
