until smooth. Remove from the heat and let cool. Whisk the eggs in a mixing
bowl until light and fluffy, 1−2 minutes. Whisk in the sugar, a little at a
time, then continue whisking until completely blended, about 1 minute more.
Add the cream, vanilla and salt and whisk to blend. Pour the chocolate
mixture into the cream mixture and blend. Cover and refrigerate until cold,
about 1−3 hours, depending on your refrigerator. Transfer the cream mixture
to an ice cream maker and freeze following the manufacturer's instructions.

chocolate and nuts, then continue freezing until the ice cream is ready.
