I've used this recipe a number of times and it's very yummy!


 Really Bad Chocolate Ice Cream
 
  1       	single              	red serrano chile; or other small
chile
  3       	tablespoon          	dark rum                           
  3       	tablespoon          	black coffee                       
  8       	oz                  	unsweetened chocolate; coarsely
chopped
  1       	teaspoon            	vanilla extract                    
  1       	cup                 	cream                              
  2       	large               	eggs                               
  1       	Cup                 	vanilla sugar                      
  1 1/2   	Cups                	cream                              
 
 Chill a large metal mixing bowl in the freezer or refrigerator.     
      
 Seed the chile and crush it in a mortar and pestle or puree it in a
food   
 processor.                                                          
      
                                                                     
      
 In a 2-quart heavy sauce pan over very low heat melt the chocolate
with the
 coffee, rum, crushed chile and butter stirring from time to time.
When the 
 chocolate and butter are melted and the mixture is shiny and smooth
remove 
 from heat and whisk in the cream. Stir 'til smooth and set aside.   
      
 In the chilled bowl, beat the eggs with an electric beater set on
highest  
 speed until they are pale and creamy colored; add the sugar a little
at a  
 time beating all the while. When all the sugar is beaten in, beat
the      
 mixture until it is very thick and creamy -- 2-3 min. Beat in the 1
1/2    
 cups cream, and continue beating until well combined. (You can do
all this 
 with a whisk, but a hand held electric mixer is faster and easier.)
Beat in
 the chocolate mixture, stopping once in a while to scrape down the
sides of
 the bowl, until the mixture is completely combined.                 
      
                                                                     
      
 Chill the mixture for at least 1/2 hour. Freeze according to your
ice cream
 freezer's directions

 NOTES : For a totally different "hot" chocolate flavor, omit the
chile and 
 add 1/4 to 1/2 cup crystallized ginger cut into 1/4" hunks to the
mixture  
 before chilling
