NOTES
*If you don’t have powdered sugar, then grind sugar in a grinder. Take 2 tbsp extra in case you are grinding it.
* If you don’t have fresh mint leaves, this ice cream can also be made using peppermint essence & few drops of green food colour.
* No chocolate chips, use chocolate shavings. If don’t have both, no issues. Make only mint ice cream.
* While freezing the ice cream, place the container in zip lock bag and only then place it in freezer. By using this simple trick, you can avoid the formation of ice crystals in the ice cream.
This method is useful in case of store brought ice creams too. After every use, place the ice cream containers (either Homemade or store brought) in the freezer only after putting it in zip lock bag.
If you have no such bags, then you can use polythene bags and tie them with rubber band, like we did. Isn’t that simply and useful?
