Mint Chocolate Ice Cream recipe made with chocolate chips and without eggs.This is a great dessert idea to make year round.
The other night, when I was getting ready to go to sleep, I looked in the mirror to see some bloodshot eyes staring back at me.
No, it wasn’t Halloween, it was me. Staying up too late as usual. Well I tried going to sleep, but nothing was working. I was tossing and turning like crazy. So what did I do?
Made ice cream of course! Mint chocolate to be precise, because it’s getting closer to Christmas. Since I have not made anything Halloween themed, I need to make up for that in the weeks leading up to Christmas 🙂

Delicious mint chocolate ice cream. Love it.
Mint chocolates are one of my most favourite things so it goes without saying that I'd love this mint chocolate ice cream too. Perfect amount of green food colour too. Can you taste the coffee in it? (I dislike coffee).

Mint and chocolate is such a great combo! It's nice anytime, although as you point out we're coming into its season. Good job – thanks.
Hi Cathleen! Paying you a visit back. You have great recipes here. Will explore more soon. I'm excited about home made ice-cream but haven't had the opportunity to try yet. I'm not a fan of mint ice-cream and I guess I can leave out the peppermint extract 🙂
Definitely one of my favorite ice creams! What a great looking scoop of deliciousness!!
so you made this in the middle of the night?! if im there, i would wake up and join you in the making!
It is still warm here so this ice cream is perfect while the weather still permits it!
Ah! Another midnight cook! It is good to know I am not the only person who cooks their way through the odd sleepless night – and what a result! This icecream sounds delicious, Cathleen!
Nothing like a scoop or three of ice cream to perk you up ! 😀 Delicious and pretty ice cream , Cathleen ! I don't like mint flavor but I just love the color ! lol
My boyfriend is going to love me forever when I make this for him!! Awesome recipe!
A classic flavour that never goes out of style in my house. A favorite always
Mint chocolate is my favorite ice cream flavor. This is calling my name!

I've been looking for a recipe for mint chocolate ice cream, it's one of my favourite flavours. I don't have a regular schedule any more so I spend a lot of time cooking in the middle of the night. It's especially nice to wake up to ice cream for breakfast. 😉
I love how bright the colour is, this looks so good and delicious.. Now the only thing I need to do is pin it and get me an ice cream maker.
Joan you must! An ice cream maker is a game changer!!
I never tried making ice cream myself. Whenever I crave for it, I would just head to the grocery store and buy it. But this is easy to do! I should give it a try one of these days.
Thanks Erika! You should, it is so easy!
Oh yum, I just love mint chocolate ice cream. It’s one of my favorites! I’ll have to try this out.

No way! I haven’t talked to anyone who didn’t like mint chocolate!

Same here! That is why I am always making it myself!
Oh man, mint chocolate chip is one of my all-time favorites! I am lactose sensitive now but I am tempted to deal with the consequences because this looks so yummy.
Thanks Ann! I am sure you can make it with lactose free cream and milk.
