Chocolate Peppermint Ice Cream

Have you ever wanted a special kind of ice cream but you're just stuck with vanilla? At my house, we usually only get vanilla. This has forced me to become very creative in the ice cream category. For homemade ice cream, without an ice cream maker, the concoctions I've come up with are pretty darn good in my opinion. My favorite is chunky peanut butter, chocolate syrup, and crushed Oreos in vanilla ice cream. As good as it is, I didn't choose to write about it because I never thought about using crushed candy canes in ice cream before. It's more unusual and definitely worth having. I have to thank my mom for giving me the idea to put crushed candy canes in ice cream. I wouldn't have had it had she not thought of it.

This recipe isn't going to be like other recipes. The amount of everything you want is completely up to you. You don't even need to use vanilla ice cream if you don't want to. Everyone has different tastes, so the combination of ingredients I like best may not be the best for someone else. It's ice cream - there really shouldn't be a "recipe" for it. You just grab the toppings you want and throw it into your bowl.
