Chocolate Mint Ice Cream

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.



Summer is here and although there are many ways to beat the heat, ice cream is my favourite. My newest creation is chocolate mint ice cream and although not new, the style may be new to you. No artificial colour, wholesome ingredients and accessible to most – you don’t need an ice cream maker.

My version has a vanilla cream base that’s full of mint flavour and aroma and chopped semisweet chocolate throughout.

minutes

Ingredients
  • 2 cups heavy/whipping cream

  • 1 can of sweetened condensed milk

  • approx 1 cup of fresh mint leaves

  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract

  • 1 shot of vodka

  • 1 tsp. sea salt

  • 1 tsp. dried mint (crushed)

  • 2/3 cup semisweet (or bittersweet) chocolate, chopped

Directions
  • Pour 1/2 cup of cream into a small pot and add the mint and turn the heat to medium. Once the cream is about to boil, turn off and allow the mint to steep in the cream for 20 minutes. Remove the mint, discard and allow the cream to cool completely.
  • Place the remaining cream and vanilla in your stand mixer (or bowl) and whisk to soft peaks.
  • Add the condensed milk, the mint cream and mix until incorporated.
  • Add the salt, dried mint, chocolate and vodka on low speed until combined
  • Transfer to airtight container and cover. Place in your freezer overnight.
Notes
