Caution: Contents are pretty hot

My last week in Portland last summer was spent alone feverishly working to finish all the house projects so I could leave, but was also filled with plenty of eating.  After the Last Supper at Pok Pok with work friends we went, as tradition dictates, to Pix Patisserie a block down Division.  They were serving Chocolate Habanero ice cream. Revelation.  I have been experimenting to recreate this and have everything but texture about where I want it.  I have been giving late night samples to people who may have interest.  Only a couple have been able to finish the 2 tablespoon portions. Most have reactions similar to those expressed so perfectly by Jake, below:
There is still a little of this batch left if you would like to sample, however the lesson I learned from this batch is that 2 habaneros is probably enough and 5 is definitely a bit much.
