Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream

Before we dive into the magical world of ice cream making, let’s feast our eyes on this delightful creation:

Homemade Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream

Ingredients

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (or chopped chocolate)
  • Green food coloring (optional, but let’s make it pretty!)

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the heavy cream, whole milk, and sugar together until the sugar is dissolved. You want it sweet but not over-the-top, like that one friend who always takes the last chip!
  2. Add the vanilla and peppermint extract. If you fancy a little color, throw in a few drops of green food coloring until it’s as vibrant as your mood on a Friday night!
  3. Once everything is mixed well, gently fold in the chocolate chips. Let’s be real, chocolate makes everything better, including our ice cream!
  4. Cover the mixture and refrigerate for about 1 hour. This step is crucial because no one likes a rushed ice cream – it deserves a little “me-time.”
  5. After an hour has passed, pour the chilled mixture into your ice cream maker and churn it according to the manufacturer’s instructions. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, don’t fret! You can still make it. Just pour it into a shallow dish, freeze it for about 30 minutes, take it out, and give it a good stir. Repeat this every 30 minutes for a few hours until it’s just right.
  6. Transfer the soft ice cream into an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until it’s firm enough to scoop. Patience is key, my friend!
  7. Once it’s ready, scoop it out, serve it up in a fancy dish (or just eat straight from the container — we won’t judge), and enjoy the delicious minty, chocolatey bliss!

Now you’re ready to impress your pals or just treat yourself after a long day. Who knew homemade happiness could be this easy? Enjoy every creamy, dreamy bite!
