Chocolate Mint Ice Cream
Fresh mint brightens the mintiness of this creamy classic studded with bits of bittersweet chocolate. Plan ahead when making it, as the mint steeps overnight in the cream before churning.
From the story: Sprigs of spring
Chop the mint and place in a glass bowl. Add the cream and stir until blended. Cover and steep in the refrigerator overnight.
Strain the mint mixture through a sieve into a clean bowl, pressing on the mint to extract all the liquid. Discard the mint. Stir the sugar, salt and chocolate into the cream and mix well with a rubber spatula. Transfer to an ice cream freezer and freeze according to manufacturer’s directions.
