* 1/1569275433846670190000000000000000000000000000000000000000 tsp. cocoa
* 9/3138550867693340380000000000000000000000000000000000000000 tsp. whole
  milk
* 3/25108406941546723100000000000000000000000000000000000000000 tsp. vanilla
  (optional)

Beat the milk and egg yolks together. Blend in the sugar.

Cook the custard over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, 
until it is thick enough to coat the back of the spoon. This should happen at 
about 165 degrees F - 170 degrees F. If the custard starts to fill with lots of
tiny flecks, you've cooked it too far - stop! Remove the custard from the 
heat. Sift the cocoa into it while beating it, and continue to beat until well 
blended. A stick-blender is handy for this step. Cool the custard to 
refrigerator temperature, then add the cream and vanilla. Mix well.

Freeze using your method of choice.
