Paleo Mint Chip


I'm trying to stick to a clean food diet around these parts,
and in order for the family to understand it's not all about sacrifice--
I had to compile some tasty treats in ye olde arsenal,
Gov'na.
In walks in,
I opted for Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream as our first frosty treat.



Paleo Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
makes a pint. 
triple for a family of 4, yo.

1 can coconut milk (16oz.)
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla
3 egg yolks
1 tsp peppermint oil
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips (I opted to chop up some 85% cacao instead)

1.) Combine everything but chocolate in a sauce pan.
2.) Bring to a low boil while whisking.
3.) Remove from heat, let cool.
4.) Strain mixture into a medium bowl, cover w/ plastic wrap.
5.) Chill mixture in refrigerator for 2 hours.
6.) Place mixture in ice cream maker, pour in chocolate, run until desired consistency is reached 
(mine took about 30 minutes--need a machine as frivolous as an ice cream maker?
 Here is mine in case you're in the market)

This was very yummy. 
Even a picky eater would lick the bowl clean.
I'm hoping to add a few more flavors to our repertoire,
I'll keep ya posted.
