Yield Makes 1 pint

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup fresh mint, preferably peppermint, leaves washed and dried, stems discarded
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup milk
1 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Using the back of a wooden spoon, crush mint leaves with sugar in a medium bowl until sugar resembles wet sand. Stir in milk and cream until sugar dissolves. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate at least 2 hours. Strain mixture; discard solids. Freeze liquid in an ice-cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Transfer to an airtight container, and freeze until set, at least 30 minutes. Ice cream can be stored in an airtight container in the freezer up to 1 week.

Meh. This ice cream was just okay. It wasn't as minty as I thought it would be.

This ice cream is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar next time.
