Our mint chocolate chip ice cream is so wonderfully smooth, refreshing and chocolatey that it may ruin the idea of store-bought forever. We owe its good graces to simple, high-quality ingredients and the tried-and-true ice cream-making method that churns up an ice cream so rich and creamy you\u2019ll be scheming for your second helping in the middle of the first. The mini chocolate chips seal the deal on the artisanal look. Invite friends over and serve scoops in your prettiest bowls.<\/p>\n
In a small saucepan, heat the milk to 175\u00b0F.<\/p>\n Whisk in the sugar and salt until they\u2019re dissolved.<\/p>\n Now you\u2019re going to temper the eggs. Whisk in a small amount of the hot mixture into the bowl of the lightly beaten eggs. Pour the milk-egg mixture back into the saucepan, and whisk.<\/p>\n Cook the mixture while whisking constantly over low heat, until the mixture coats the back of a metal spoon and reaches at least 160\u00b0, for two to three minutes. Immediately remove the saucepan from the heat.<\/p>\n Editor\u2019s Tip:<\/em> Be sure to whisk constantly once the hot milk and eggs are combined, or you\u2019ll be left with scrambled eggs in your ice cream.<\/p>\n Working quickly, pour the custard into a bowl, and place the bowl over a bigger bowl filled with ice water. Stir the custard for two minutes.<\/p>\n Editor\u2019s Tip:<\/em> I like to strain my custard through a fine mesh sieve to catch and remove any pieces of egg.<\/p>\n Stir in the heavy whipping cream, vanilla, peppermint extracts and food coloring ( if you choose).<\/p>\n Press the storage wrap onto the surface of the custard so it doesn\u2019t form a skin. Refrigerate the custard base for several hours or overnight.<\/p>\n Editor\u2019s Tip:<\/em> It\u2019s so tempting to skip the chilling and get right to the churning, but letting the custard chill creates a richer ice cream texture and more mature flavor.<\/p>\n Using a rubber spatula, stir the chocolate chips into the custard. Pour the custard into the ice cream freezer cylinder until it\u2019s two-thirds full. Churn and freeze the ice cream according to the manufacturer’s directions. Refrigerate the remaining mixture until it’s ready to churn.<\/p>\n Editor\u2019s Tip:<\/em> We put together a list of our favorite ice cream makers <\/a>just in case you don\u2019t already own one.<\/p>\n Transfer the churned ice cream to a freezer container, and freeze for two to four hours before serving.<\/p>\n Like most homemade ice cream recipes, you can store this mint chocolate chip ice cream in an airtight freezer container for up to three months. The best type of airtight container is a shallow and long one. It makes scooping the ice cream so much easier.<\/p>\n Peppermint extract’s potent flavor makes it the best mint flavoring for mint chocolate desserts, such as this.<\/p>\n We love topping mint chip ice cream with crumbled Andes mints, hot fudge, whipped cream or a chocolate shell topping. It also tastes delicious when paired with a warm, fudgy homemade brownie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Keep a batch of this contest-winning mint chocolate chip ice cream in your freezer for a sweet treat any time.
