Mint Chocolate Chip No Churn Ice Cream

The Imaginative One loves the color green.  Once he was old enough to chose his own ice cream flavor, he would chose mint chocolate chip ice cream.  For five or so years, he would only eat with mint chocolate chip ice cream.  In recent years, his choice of ice cream flavors is more diverse.

The new trend is no churn ice cream.  No churn ice cream does not involve using an ice cream machine.  It uses a combination of condensed milk and whipping cream to make a delicious ice cream.

I decided to try making some no churn ice cream.  Since the Imaginative One loves mint chocolate chip ice cream, I decided  to try make that flavor for my first batch.  Oh, my goodness.  It was absolutely divine.  Hubby, my mother-in-law, and I all agree that it was a very creamy ice cream.

So on this hot summer day, take some time out and make yourself some no churn ice cream.

I also have a recipe for cream soda ice cream on this blog.  That ice cream requires an ice cream maker.
