Cool Mint Ice Cream
What it is
This is a frozen dessert made with dairy, sugar, and mint flavoring. It has a smooth texture and a refreshing taste. The cool mint flavor is often enhanced by small chocolate chips or flakes, adding a contrasting texture and a hint of cocoa to the sweetness. It is typically served very cold.
How people cook with it

To enjoy this ice cream, simply open the container and scoop it into bowls or cones. It is best served immediately after scooping.

Allow it to soften slightly for easier scooping if it is very hard.
