Ingredients

MINT ICE CREAM

  • 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tsp mint extract
  • 1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips

CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM

  • 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream, divided
  • 1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided
  • 2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

MAKE MINT ICE CREAM

  • In a large mixing bowl, add the sweetened condensed milk and mint extract. Stir to combine.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, add heavy whipping cream and beat on MED-HIGH speed until light and fluffy, and stiff peaks form.
  • Add the whipped cream to the condensed milk and gently fold together.  Add 10-12 drops of green food coloring (or as much or as little as you like) and continue to fold until the food coloring is mixed in. 
  • Stir in chocolate chips. Set bowl in the refrigerator while you make the chocolate ice cream.

MAKE CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM

  • Place 3 Tbsp of the mini chocolate chips and 1 Tbsp of the whipped cream in a microwave safe bowl and heat on 10 second bursts until melted and smooth when stirred.
  • In a large mixing bowl, add the sweetened condensed milk, melted chocolate, cocoa powder and vanilla extract. Stir to combine.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, add remaining heavy whipping cream and beat on MED-HIGH speed until light and fluffy, and stiff peaks form.
  • Add the whipped cream to the condensed milk and gently fold together.  Stir in remaining chocolate chips.

COMBINE AND FREEZE

  • Randomly scoop or spoon the mint mixture and the chocolate mixture into a metal 9x13" pan.  The mint mixture may seem a bit thinner than the chocolate, that’s completely normal.
  • After all the ice cream has been added to the pan, place the pan in the freezer for a minimum of 6 hours to freeze.  Overnight is best though.
  • When ready to serve, remove from the freezer and scoop into cones or cups. Immediately return the remaining ice cream to the freezer.
