Easy Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream

Description

This is a GREAT mint chocolate chip ice cream that I discovered by accident. The 2% milk makes the ice cream taste ‘lighter’ I think.

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 3 drops green food coloring (Optional)
  • 1 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Stir milk
  2. cream
  3. sugar
  4. vanilla
  5. peppermint extract
  6. and salt together in a large bowl until the sugar has dissolved. Mix in green food coloring.
  7. Pour mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer’s instructions.
  8. Add chocolate chips about 10 minutes into the freezing. Continue churning until ice cream has thickened
  9. about 20 minutes more.
  10. Transfer to an airtight container and freeze until firm
  11. about 2 hours.
