Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp peppermint extract (DO NOT USE MORE THAN THIS)
  • 2-3 drops green gel food dye (optional)
  • 4 oz dark chocolate, chopped

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream on high speed until firm peaks form, about 5-6 minutes. "Firm peaks" indicates that the whip stands on its own when the blade is remove.
  • With the mixer running on low, pour in the condensed milk, vanilla, peppermint, and food coloring. For a deeper green, add another drop or two. Increase the speed to medium and whip until very smooth.
  • Layer 1/3 of the ice cream into a 9 x 5 inch loaf pan. Sprinkle 1/3 of the chopped chocolate. Repeat the layering twice more, ending with a sprinkle of chocolate. Cover the pan with foil and freeze at least 4 hours, but preferably overnight.
  • Serve scoops in a bowl, a waffle cone, sugar cone, or just nibble straight from the container. Mmm!
