Attempting a Mix-in

I discovered that Nestle makes bags of chocolate chip mixes, called Morsels & More. There is a Hot Fudge Sundae variety with chocolate chips, mini marshmallows, and waffle cone pieces. Obviously, I had to try it in my chocolate ice cream recipe.

  1. Start with my Real Chocolate Ice Cream recipe.
  2. Churn per manufacturer's instructions
  3. With 2 minutes to go, mix in the pre-frozen mix-in until it looks right (about 1 cup).

This one was a bit of a disappointment to me.

  • The texture of the ice cream and the chocolate flavor were both good, but . . .
  • In the beginning, I thought the extra stuff in the bag would make up for the chip's shortcomings in ice cream. Sadly, the mix was chip heavy with very few marshmallows or cone pieces. The marshmallows essentially dissolved into the ice cream and the waffle cone pieces all but dissappeared. This product might be fine in a cookie or other baked good, but I didn't like it ice cream.

Refreshing Mint

My second attempt at mint was similar to my first. On the advice of B&J, I deleted the salt. I also switched chips and used a full tea...
