Step 1: Place the pudding mix, cocoa, sugar, cinnamon and cayenne, if using, in a large bowl. Mix well using a wire whisk. Add the half & half, heavy cream, milk and vanilla. Whisk until fully mixed. It will be slightly thick due to the instant pudding.
Step 2: Pour mixture into the ice cream freezer (I use a Cuisinart), and follow the manufacturers instructions to freeze. When almost done, add the mini chocolate chips.
Step 3: Transfer to a freezer container and freeze for at least 4 hours.
Step 4: NOTE: My ice cream maker doesn't hold this entire recipe. I do it in two batches, which takes two days since I have to wait another day for the freezer container to freeze again. Sometimes I only make half a recipe.
