Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 cup milk

Steps:

  • Stir heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, milk, mint extract, vanilla extract, and chocolate chips in a bowl until evenly mixed.

Tips:

  • Fresh mint leaves: For the best flavor, use fresh mint leaves. If you don't have fresh mint on hand, you can use dried mint leaves, but they won't be as flavorful.
  • Chill the mixture: Before churning the ice cream, chill the mixture for at least 4 hours or overnight. This will help the ice cream freeze more evenly and smoothly.
  • Use a good quality ice cream maker: If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can still make this recipe, but it will be more difficult. You'll need to stir the ice cream mixture constantly while it's freezing to prevent it from becoming icy.
  • Don't over-churn the ice cream: Once the ice cream has reached a soft-serve consistency, stop churning it. Over-churning can make the ice cream icy.
  • Store the ice cream properly: Once the ice cream is churned, transfer it to a freezer-safe container and freeze it for at least 4 hours before serving. This will help the ice cream harden and develop its full flavor.

Conclusion:

This homemade mint chocolate chip ice cream is a delicious and refreshing treat that's perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're craving something sweet, give this recipe a try!
