Strong Coffee Ice Cream
Ingredients
2/3 cup coffee beans, such as Seattle's Best, coarsely mashed in sealable plastic bag
2 cups whole milk
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 cup granulated sugar, divided
1 teaspoon instant espresso powder, dissolved in 1 teaspoon hot water
7 large egg yolks
Preparation
1. In a heavy-bottomed large saucepan (3-4 quarts), combine coffee beans, milk, cream, and 1/2 cup sugar.
2. Bring mixture to a boil over low heat. Remove from heat, cover, and let steep for 30 minutes.
3. Strain mixture through a fine strainer, add espresso mixture, and return to heat.
4. Meanwhile, whisk yolks and 1/2 cup sugar in a medium-size bowl.
5. When milk mixture comes to a simmer, pour 1/3 of it over egg mixture, whisking quickly to avoid curdling eggs.
6. Pour egg mixture back into milk mixture, and return to heat.
7. Cook over low heat, whisking constantly until mixture thickens enough to coat back of a spoon. You'll know it's ready when a line drawn into mixture coating the back of spoon can hold its shape.
8. Remove pan from heat, and strain mixture through a fine strainer into a bowl set over an ice water bath.
9. Chill mixture over ice bath for about 15 minutes, stirring constantly with a clean whisk, or until mixture is cool. Pour into ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's instructions.

Flavonoids, also found in wine are types of pigments that are water-soluble and created by plants of many varieties. There are thousands of different flavanoids. Plants use flavonoids in the process of photosynthesis.
How the human body actually uses and/or processes flavonoids is still not determined but they have been linked to good health in many areas - particularly blood circulation.
If you are a science buff, then you'll be interested to know that flavonoids are polyphenolic compounds containing 15 carbon atoms, two benzene rings joined by a linear three carbon chain. If you're just an average, everyday person with a sweet tooth, then you'll be interested to know that good things are contained in a single bite of dark chocolate. So please, put down the chemistry book and enjoy some today!
