No ice cream maker needed for this! This is a very quick and easy ice cream to make. When my wife and I started this process, I didn’t see how it could turn into anything resembling ice cream, but it sure enough did! And it sure enough is quite tasty!

You can experiment and change up the peppermint candies and the chocolate chips with anything you prefer. Go wild with your imagination and see what you can come up with.

To the best of my knowledge, this recipe was originally from Nestle’s Toll House. All my wife has at this point is an old page torn out of an unidentified cook book.
