We received an ice cream maker for a wedding gift, and I love putting it to use! Here's a simple and quick recipe for mint chocolate chip ice cream that is so refreshing! You can view the original recipe here.

Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream:

• 2 cups 2% milk
• 2 cups heavy whipping cream
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp peppermint extract
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
• 4-6 drops green food coloring (optional)

1. In a large bowl, stir together all ingredients except for chocolate chips until sugar has dissolved.
2. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer instructions. After about 10 minutes, add the chocolate chips and continue freezing in the ice cream maker until it has thickened (usually about 30 more minutes).
3. Transfer ice cream into a container and place in the freezer for about 2 hours.

Sooo simple and sooo delicious! Enjoy! :)
