# Steps To Follow:
01 -
In a large mixing bowl, whip the cold heavy cream with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Avoid overbeating to maintain a smooth texture.
02 -
In a separate bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk, peppermint extract, and vanilla extract. Incorporate 1–2 drops of green gel food coloring for a classic mint appearance, if desired.
03 -
Gently fold the whipped cream into the sweetened condensed milk mixture using a spatula, maintaining as much air as possible for a light consistency.
04 -
Carefully fold in the chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate and the crushed Oreo cookies until evenly distributed.
05 -
Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container, smoothing the surface. Press a sheet of parchment paper directly onto the surface to minimize ice crystal formation. Freeze for 4–6 hours or until fully set.
06 -
Scoop the ice cream into a glass dessert bowl. Garnish with a mint sprig and vertically position an Oreo cookie for height and texture. Serve on a wooden surface for optimal visual appeal.
# Notes and Tips:
01 -
Ensure all equipment and ingredients are well chilled to help the mixture whip efficiently and yield a smoother texture.
02 -
Fold ingredients gently to prevent the ice cream from losing its volume and becoming dense.
