I made this with semi-sweet chocolate, as I didn't have unsweetened. It made a very dark, very 'adult' tasting chocolate ice cream. I can only imagine it would have been even darker with the unsweetened chocolate the recipe calls for.
I liked it a lot. My daughters took a little while to come around, as it was not quite as sweet as they're used to, even a hint of bitterness - it's really for chocolate lovers. I like also that it's Philadelphia-style, which makes for a faster creation. A definite keeper.
This is absolutely the best homemade chocolate ice cream I've ever had, and is definitely one of the best chocolates I've ever had (and I've had a LOT). I did not use Dutch-process cocoa (subbed regular instead) as I couldn't find any in my local grocery store and I used about 1/2 of a 90% bitter dark chocolate bar. Amazingly rich, dense flavor.
