-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 large egg yolks
6 tablespoons sugar
2 1/4 cups heavy cream
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
7 ounces Nutella
2 teaspoons hazelnut syrup
Whisk the yolks and sugar in a bowl until thick and creamy; they should form pale ribbons when you lift the beaters or whisk. Bring the cream to a boil and add it to the beaten yolks, pouring slowly and beating all the while.
Melt the chocolate (I find this easiest to do in the microwave) and let it cool slightly, then whisk this, followed by the cocoa, into the eggs and cream. Pour the chocolate-custard mixture into a pan and cook on a low to moderate heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until everything's' smooth and amalgamated and beginning to thicken. Turn into a bowl or wide pitcher and cool, whisking or stirring every now and then to stop a skin from forming.
When the mixture's cool, whisk in the Nutella and the hazelnut syrup and then freeze in an ice cream maker.
