MINT CHOCOLATE CHIP ICE CREAM CAKE



Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Cake image

With just a 9-by-13 pan, a spoon and four store-bought ingredients, you can make an ice cream cake that's creamy, crunchy and fudgy in every bite. It starts with crushed chocolate-mint cookies that are covered with mint chocolate chip ice cream. Next, it's topped with a layer of ice cream sandwiches, with their cakey cookies and vanilla ice cream. Follow that with more mint chip ice cream, and you've made a six-layer cake without breaking a sweat. Feel free to experiment here: Swap out the mint cookies for snickerdoodles, pretzels or broken waffle cones, and the mint-chip ice cream for coffee, peanut butter or strawberry ice cream - or any combination that sounds good to you. Slice the cake into pieces big or small, then drizzle them with hot fudge or Magic Shell. This cake serves a crowd, but you can halve the ingredients and build it in an 8-by-8-inch pan for a smaller group.

Categories     cakes, ice creams and sorbets, dessert

Time 2h30m

Yield One 9-by-13-inch cake (15 to 18 servings)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups coarsely crushed crisp chocolate-mint or chocolate cookies (about 10 ounces)
2 (1.5-quart) cartons or 6 pints mint chocolate chip ice cream
12 full-size rectangular ice cream sandwiches
Store-bought or homemade hot fudge sauce or Magic Shell, for serving

Steps:

  • Line a 9-by-13-inch pan with two layers of plastic wrap, leaving a few inches of overhang on all sides. Open all of the ice cream containers. Place one 1 1/2 quart (or 3 pints) on the counter and let soften until it resembles thick cake batter, 5 to 10 minutes; you'll use this ice cream first. Place the other containers in the refrigerator to soften while you build the first half of the cake. (Ice cream will reach the desired consistency in the refrigerator in 20 to 30 minutes.)
  • Scatter the crushed cookies in a thin, even layer across the bottom of the pan. Spoon the first softened container of ice cream over the cookies and spread into an even layer. Press down as you go to adhere the ice cream to the cookies. If at any point the ice cream is melting to liquid, pop the cake and ice cream in the freezer to firm to a spoonable consistency.
  • Place the pan in the freezer while you unwrap the sandwiches. Top the ice cream with a layer of ice cream sandwiches, cutting some as needed to fill the layer to the edges.
  • Spoon the remaining ice cream over the top and spread into an even layer. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, at least 2 hours or up to 1 week.
  • To serve, use the plastic overhang to remove the cake from the pan. Cut into squares or rectangles and serve with a drizzle of hot fudge or Magic Shell. If you're finding the cake too solid to cut, don't wait for it to soften: Warm your knife by running it under hot water and wiping it dry between cuts.

DIRTY MINT CHOCOLATE CHIP ICE CREAM



Dirty Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream image

We have news for you. That supermarket mint chip ice cream with the nuclear-green color? It doesn't have any mint leaves in it. It has mint oil or fake mint flavoring, and that nasty color comes from artificial coloring. Real, fresh mint leaves give our Dirty Mint a fresh, cool intensity. Why is it "dirty"? Because we use brown sugar in the base, which gives the ice cream a deep caramel punch and a natural light brown color. It is also "dirty" because we don't strain out the mint. Leaving it in deepens the flavor the longer the ice cream is in the freezer. (Warning: This has been known to convert mint ice cream haters.)

CHICKPEA MINT CHOCOLATE CHIP ICE CREAM



Chickpea Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream image

Canned chickpeas are the secret ingredient in this easy frozen treat, lending creaminess and body without affecting the flavor. (We promise!) Be sure to remove the skins for the smoothest possible results. Pitted Medjool dates add just the right amount of sweetness, and vegan mint extract and baking chips are the perfect flavoring combo.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 8h35m

Yield 8 servings (about 4 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup drained and rinsed canned chickpeas
One 13.66-ounce can unsweetened coconut cream
1 cup pitted Medjool dates (about 10)
2 teaspoons vegan mint extract
1/4 teaspoon green vegan food coloring
1 cup vegan semisweet baking chips
Vegan ice cream cones, for serving, optional

Steps:

  • Place the chickpeas on a clean dish towel or a couple paper towels and cover with a paper towel. Gently rub the chickpeas until they are completely dry and the skins start to fall off. Use your fingers to peel off any remaining skins (the chickpeas should easily pop out).
  • Place the skinned chickpeas, coconut cream, dates and mint extract in a blender. Blend, stopping and scraping down the sides of the container with a rubber spatula as needed, until very smooth, about 1 minute. It's okay if there are some specks from the dates, but the mixture should be smooth and similar in texture to a thick milkshake. Add the food coloring and blend until combined (the color should resemble the inside of a ripe avocado).
  • Pour one-third of the chickpea mixture into a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan, then top with one-third of the baking chips, making sure to go all the way to the edges of the pan. Pour half of the remaining chickpea mixture into the pan, then top with half of the remaining baking chips. Add the remaining chickpea mixture, then top with the remaining baking chips. Cover the loaf pan with plastic wrap and freeze until completely firm, at least 8 hours and up to overnight.
  • Let the ice cream sit at room temperature to soften before scooping, 10 to 15 minutes. Scoop into bowls or vegan ice cream cones and serve.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Time 1h45m

Yield Makes 22

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for flattening rounds
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
1/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
1 3/4 cups plus 1 1/2 teaspoons granulated sugar
3 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure coffee extract, such as Trablit (available at lepicerie.com)
1 1/2 teaspoons instant-espresso powder
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped and melted
4 cups heavy cream
1 1/2 cups packed fresh mint leaves
6 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
Pinch of coarse salt

Steps:

  • Cookies: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. In another bowl, beat butter on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 1 minute. Add brown sugar and 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar and beat until combined, about 1 minute. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time, then coffee extract. Reduce speed to low; gradually add flour mixture, beating until just combined.
  • Scoop 1-ounce balls of dough with a 1 5/8-inch ice cream scoop and place 2 inches apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. Flatten each slightly with the bottom of a dry-measure cup dipped in flour. Stir together remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons granulated sugar and espresso powder in a small bowl; sprinkle mixture over rounds.
  • Bake cookies until golden on edges, about 15 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack. Dip flat sides of half of cookies in chocolate (or spread chocolate on cookies). Freeze on a baking sheet, chocolate-side up, until set, 5 to 15 minutes.
  • Cream: Meanwhile, prepare an ice-water bath. Bring cream and mint to a simmer in a small saucepan, then remove from heat; let cool completely, 30 minutes. Place in ice bath until well chilled. Transfer half of mixture to a food processor with half of confectioners' sugar and salt; purée until mint is finely chopped and cream is thick enough to scoop (check after 20 seconds). Then pulse just until whipped. Repeat with second batch.
  • Scoop 1/4 cup whipped cream onto flat side of each coated cookie. Freeze until slightly hardened, 5 to 20 minutes. Lightly press uncoated halves on top, then freeze until semifirm, about 30 minutes, before serving.

Number Of Ingredients 23

2 cups sweetened condensed milk, chilled
2 cups heavy whipping cream, chilled
1 1/2 teaspoons peppermint extract
1/8 teaspoon green food coloring
1 cup mini morsel chocolate chips
Hot fudge sauce
Whipped cream
Shaved milk chocolate
Chocolate Dipped Cookies, recipe follows
4 ounces semisweet chocolate
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons corn syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons espresso powder
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon table salt
2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Garnish:
  • Mix the milk, cream, peppermint extract and green food coloring together in a large liquid measuring cup and refrigerate until cold. Turn your ice cream machine on and pour in the cream mixture. Churn until the mixture looks slushy like soft serve, about 12 to 15 minutes. Stir in the chocolate morsels.
  • Transfer the ice cream to another container and put plastic wrap on top of the ice cream. Cover the container tightly with a lid. Freeze for several hours until firm enough to scoop.
  • To assemble sundaes, scoop ice cream into 4 bowls. Top with hot fudge sauce, whipped cream, and chocolate shavings. Top with a cookie and serve.
  • Glaze:
  • Melt the chocolate and butter in a small glass bowl over a pot of simmering water. Whisk together until smooth and glossy. Remove from the heat and whisk in corn syrup and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Dip the cooled cookies into the glaze and remove, with a fork, to a wire rack set over a sheet tray. Allow the cookies to set for 40 minutes before serving.
  • Whisk together flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl.
  • In a large bowl, add the butter and sugar and cream together, using an electric mixer, until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs and vanilla, then slowly add the dry ingredients. Form the dough into a long 2-inch thick log on parchment paper and roll tightly. Freeze for at least 4 hours to overnight.
  • Arrange racks in the middle of the oven. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Slice the dough into 1/4-inch rounds and arrange them on a parchment lined baking sheet, about 1-inch apart. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes. Remove and let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet, then remove to a wire rack. Let cool completely before glazing.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The quality of the chocolate you use will greatly impact the flavor of your ice cream. Opt for a good-quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60%.
  • Use fresh mint: Fresh mint leaves will give your ice cream a bright, refreshing flavor. If you can't find fresh mint, you can use dried mint, but be sure to use half the amount.
  • Chill your ingredients: Chilling your ingredients before you start making the ice cream will help it freeze more evenly and smoothly.
  • Don't over churn the ice cream: Over churning the ice cream will make it icy and grainy. Churn the ice cream just until it is thick and creamy, about 25-30 minutes.
  • Store the ice cream properly: Store the ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Chocolate mint ice cream is a classic flavor combination that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich, chocolatey flavor and refreshing mintiness, it's sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy dessert, give this chocolate mint ice cream recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
