SOFT SERVE BASE
MINT CHOCOLATE PIECES MIX-INS
Method
SOFT SERVE BASE
- 1
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, whisk together the milk, heavy cream, sugar, salt, and cornstarch. Heat gently until the mixture is warm and the sugar is dissolved, whisking often.
- 2
Whisk a small amount of the warm base into the cornstarch to create a slurry, then whisk the slurry back into the saucepan until smooth.
- 3
Remove from heat. Stir in peppermint extract, vanilla extract, and green food coloring (if using). Let the mixture cool slightly.
- 4
Chill the base in the refrigerator until completely cold, at least 2 hours.
MINT CHOCOLATE PIECES MIX-INS
- 5
While the base chills, crush chocolate sandwich cookies into small pieces until you have about 1 cup; measure 1/2 cup mini mint chocolate chips.
- 6
Store mix-ins refrigerated until ready to add.
SOFT SERVE ASSEMBLY
- 7
Churn the cold base in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions, until it reaches soft-serve consistency.
- 8
In the last minute of churning, gently fold in the crushed cookies and mint chocolate chips.
- 9
Serve immediately as soft serve in cups or cones. If a firmer texture is desired, freeze for 15-30 minutes before serving.
