Cook custard according to Real Vanilla Ice Cream recipe, but omit vanilla
bean. Strain into large metal bowl; stir in vanilla extract. In large
microwave-safe bowl, place chocolate squares. cook on HIGH 2 1/2 - 3 1/2
min., then stir until smooth. Slowly stir warm custard into melted
chocolate until well-blended. Cover and place in freezer until very cold,
about 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Yield: 5 cups custard to make ice
cream.

If using ice-cream maker that requires no salt or ice, freeze cream
container over night. assemble ice-cream maker as manufacturer directs.
Pour chocolate mixture into cream container; process until almost firm but
still slightly soft, about 20 minutes. If using electric model, the motor
willslow down when the ice cream has reached proper consistency. Transfer
ice cream to an air tight plastic container and freeze until solid, about 2
1/2 hours. for soft ice cream, serve immediately. If using salt-and-ice
model, place ice cream in cream container then snap on freezing can lid.
Makes 1 1/2 quarts.

*Pure vanilla is recommended for frozen desserts, as imitation vanilla
leaves an unsatisfactory, thin taste.
