Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Recipe

Mint Chocolate Chip Icecream Recipe

I had this vision of making a mint ice cream with mint sauce for a long time. I have tasted it lots of times in baskin robbins, it is my sissy favorite ice cream. So i wanted to recreate it so badly. I used to buy a bunch of mint to make this ice cream, then i used to forget and the mint will either turn bad or gets used up in other recipes.

Finally i made a bunch of mint leaves couple weeks back and made it the very next day. First i thought of making this with GMS & CMC like my vanilla ice cream recipe. Then i thought to make it plain and simple using cornflour so everyone can try it out,.
