Mint Chocolate Chip Source: chewoutloud.com Ingredients: • 1 cup whole milk, well chilled • 3/4 cup granulated sugar • 2 cups heavy cream, well chilled • 1.5-2 tsp pure peppermint extract, or to taste • 4 oz semi-sweet chocolate bar, chopped into tiny pieces • Special Equipment: Ice cream maker butter in a heavy bottomed skillet over medium heat. Bring to a boil and let boil for about 3 to 4 minutes to lightly caramelize. Use a sturdy wooden spoon to stir in the pecans and remove from heat. Keep stirring until the candy cools and the pecans are coated. Spoon onto a parchment lined baking sheet to cool completely. To make the Ice Cream: 1. Combine the heavy cream, milk, sugar and vanilla in a large bowl, and whisk until the sugar is dissolved. Turn on your ice cream machine and pour into canister. Process according to manufacturer's directions. Just before you finish churning add the cooled pralines to the machine as well as the 1/4 cup caramel. 2. Transfer the soft ice cream to a freezer safe container (I like to use my metal loaf pans), and freeze for at least 2 hours or until desired consistency. Enjoy with an extra drizzle of caramel sauce if desired. 34 Instructions: 1. In bowl, use whisk to combine milk and sugar until dissolved. 2. Stir in heavy cream and peppermint. 3.

Put ice cream in airtight container for a few hours before enjoying, if you can wait that long.
