Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 1 can Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Pure peppermint extract
- 4 drops Green food coloring (optional)
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup Mini chocolate chips
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, pour in the heavy whipping cream and beat using a hand mixer or stand mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. This will take about 3-4 minutes.
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, peppermint extract, and green food coloring (if using) until fully combined.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the sweetened condensed milk mixture using a spatula. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream, as this will help create a light and airy ice cream texture.
Once the mixture is fully combined, fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Transfer the ice cream mixture into a loaf pan or any freezer-safe container. Smooth the top with the back of a spoon or spatula.
Cover the container with plastic wrap or an airtight lid to prevent ice crystals from forming.
Place the container in the freezer and freeze for at least 6 hours or preferably overnight until firm.
Once frozen, scoop and serve the mint chocolate chip ice cream in bowls or cones. Enjoy your homemade creation!
