Our family has made more homemade ice cream this last summer than Rob & I have our entire marriage. We are having fun with it. The following recipe was adapted by moi. It tastes like a Frosty. We shall call it....

Finlinson's Frosty (Chocolate Ice Cream)

1 quart ½ & ½
1 pint whipping cream
16 ounces (2 cups) chocolate milk
1 cup chocolate syrup
1 can fat free evaporated milk
1 can fat free sweetened condensed milk
2 boxes Junior Mints (not the wimpy "candy bar-size" - the size just up from that)

Unceremoniously dump all ingredients except the candy into your ice cream freezer.

When ice cream begins to set, add Junior Mints (if you want them). They add a nice little surprise in every bite - they don't get as hard as a rock, either. (ummmmm. minty-licious)

Remove whisk thingy and place in your freezer for 4-5 hours. It "cures" the ice cream nicely. It is a little thicker than a Frosty.

Enjoy. Seriously. This is really good.

Makes: four quarts
