Blue Cheese Ice Cream With Chocolate Fig Swirl

• Blue cheese ice cream base
• 2 cups heavy cream
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 tablespoon powdered skim milk
• 1 ounce cream cheese, cut into small pieces
• 3 ounces blue cheese, crumbled into small pieces
• 1 teaspoon white cooking wine
• Chocolate fig swirl
• 1/2 cup dried figs, chopped fine (about 6 figs)
• 1/3 cup water
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 teaspoon corn syrup
• 2 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped fine
• 1 teaspoon cocoa powder
• 1 pinch salt

1. Heat cream, milk, 1 cup sugar, powdered milk, cream cheese, and blue cheese over medium heat. Gently whisk until sugar dissolves and cheeses melt (mostly-there will probably be a few bits that refuse to melt). Remove from heat before mixture boils.
2. Strain mixture into a medium bowl. Discard any unmelted bits of cheese (or spread them over a piece of toast for a sweet snack).
3. Cover and chill for at least two hours, preferably longer.
4. While the cream mixture chills, make the swirl. Mix chocolate, cocoa, and salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
5. Heat water, 2 T sugar, and corn syrup in a small saucepan or skillet. Stir until sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil.
6. Pour hot mixture over chocolate, cocoa, and salt. Whisk until smooth. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
7. When the cream mixture is chilled, churn it to a soft-serve consistency according to your ice cream maker manufacturer's instructions.
8. Spread a thin layer of the soft-serve ice cream in the bottom of a freezer-safe container. Smear a spoonful of the chocolate fig swirl sauce over the ice cream. Cover the sauce completely with another thin layer of a ice cream. Smear a spoonful of sauce over this layer. Continue alternating ice cream and sauce until your container is full. Freeze for at least four hours.
