Our ice cream recipe today combines the best of the classic chocolate variety and the summery refreshing peppermint type. The preparation of this unique mint and chocolate ice cream requires only a few steps and just four ingredients are needed. The deliciously crunchy chocolate pieces and the liquid filling of the VIVANI Fine Dark Peppermint Chocolate make this ice-cold treat something very special. In addition to the heavenly creamy taste, the fact that the ice cream is made entirely without an ice cream machine is also convincing.
