Peppermint No Churn Ice Cream Food

NO-CHURN PEPPERMINT-CHOCOLATE CHUNK ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Put a 9-by-5-by-3-inch metal loaf pan in the freezer to chill.
• Put 3/4 cup of the cream and 1/2 cup of the peppermint puff candies in a medium saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring frequently, until the candies are melted, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in 1 cup of the chocolate chunks until melted. Cool completely.
• Meanwhile, whip the remaining 2 cups cream in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until firm peaks form, about 2 minutes. With the mixer running, slowly pour in the condensed milk and peppermint extract and whip until combined.
• Pour half of the condensed milk mixture into the chilled loaf pan, then top with half of the chocolate sauce and half of the remaining chocolate chunks and peppermint candy. Cover with the remaining condensed milk mixture and top with the remaining chocolate chunks and peppermint candy. Drizzle with the remaining chocolate sauce. Loosely cover with plastic wrap and freeze until solid and scoopable, about 3 hours and up to overnight. Serve in a cup with a candy cane if desired.

NO-CHURN PEPPERMINT BARK ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks in a large bowl with an electric hand mixer (though you can whip by hand if you'd like). Set aside.
• Add the sweetened condensed milk to another large bowl. Stir in the vanilla and peppermint extracts.
• Fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk just until no streaks remain. Gently fold in the chopped peppermint bark (reserve a few pieces to sprinkle on top). Pour into a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan. Sprinkle the reserved pieces of peppermint bark on top. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze overnight, or at least 6 hours.
• Scoop the ice cream into a cup and try to not eat all of the remaining ice cream. Bonus points if you pour coffee on top.
