Cocoa Cheesecake Brownie Milkshakes.

I started with all the good stuff. Milk, egg yolks, sugar, vanilla, and cream. Also on hand cocoa and cream cheese.

I put the milk on the stove and mixed the eggs, sugar, and cream cheese in the machine. It whipped up nice and when the milk was hot I added some to the egg mixture and some to the the cocoa. I'm not sure if I really needed to make the cocoa paste, but I read I should, so I did.

I put the egg mixture and cocoa paste into the remaining milk and I cooked it the rest of the way. Put it in a pitcher, mixed in the vanilla and cream, and stashed it in the fridge.
The next morning I froze that shit.
At this point the ice-cream tastes like a Frosty. That's a good thing. The cheese doesn't really come through, but I think it adds to the texture. It's rich and smooth. The cocoa is a nice change from a heavy chocolate.
I packed up the ice-cream and head over to a second location.
We baked brownies. From a box and a bag.

Ice-cream, brownies, and a little milk went into the blender. We saved some bits of brownie to dip and mix into the milkshake. Four servings.
