Chunky Monkey Ice Cream

3/4 cup dark chocolate chunks
2 large eggs
3/4 cup sugar
2 cups heavy or whipping cream
1 cup milk
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 bananas, overripe
juice of 1 lemon

Place the chocolate chunks in a bowl, cover and refrigerate. Whisk eggs in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in sugar, a little at a time, then continue whisking until completely blended, about 1 minute more. Pour in the cream and milk, and whisk to blend. Add the vanilla and whisk to blend again. Transfer the mixture to a ice cream maker and freeze following the manufacturer's directions. Mash the bananas in a bowl, add the lemon juice and whisk until smooth. After the ice cream stiffens (about 2 minutes before it is done), add the banana mixture, chocolate chunks , then continue freezing until done.

Makes 1 generous quart.
