This raw mint chocolate chip ice cream is insane.

I got the idea for this recipe from Raw Food/Real World: 100 Recipes to Get the Glow and it came out perfect.

I added some spirulina to make it green, some raw cacao nibs for the chips, and then some mint leaves and a few drops of peppermint oil to make it taste like mint.

Hi there meganthevegan :) I'm glad you had a good laugh regarding Levi. He really does love his ice cream...and will tap his plastic bowl with his beak while saying, "Ice Cream! Ice Cream! Ice Cream" then wait to see if I'll give him some. If I'm in the kitchen eating some myself, you'll hear, "Is that good?" That's a subtle hint of "Hey, have you forgotten about me over here? I would like some of that please!" or here's one of his famous lines to get attention, "I haven't forgot about you!"

WOW! That's neat to be able to make 2 different kinds of ice cream at once! And you got it for $20. What a blessing! You'd be amazed at what you can find at a thrift store.

How did your chocolate mint ice cream turn out? Bet it turned out SCRUMPTIOUS! I just made a fresh batch of the above recipe, but this time added some Carob chips...YUM! The ICE-20 makes 1.5 quarts...however, mine almost runs over the top :) What's so wonderful about making raw ice cream, is that you feel so good eating it...knowing there is nothing artificial or harmful in it! ENJOY!

Hey, if you are ever interested, I made my first batch of raw chocolate candy last night and it was the BEST I've ever had. I modified a recipe I found here on www.goneraw.com. I let my apartment manager try one and she could not believe it was raw (all natural).

An alternative for an ice cream machine is this simple process...

1 quart ziplock with ice cream inside.

1 gallon ziplock with ice and rock salt inside.

put quart ziplock in gallon ziplock, wrap with towel and massage gently for 15-20 minutes... You can double bag the quart bag if you get scared... :)

Hey great recipe... I can't wait to try it.

Thank you Namllets for this FABULOUS & DELIGHTFUL recipe! I made this just last weekend, and still have a little left...ONLY because I disciplined myself to eat a little at a time LOL!

Just this week, I shared this with non-raw people at the office and they were shocked that it was RAW! They absolutely loved it and wanted the recipe! I'm definitely gonna make this again! Before putting the cacao nibs in, I poured some into another container for Levi, my African Grey parrot who loves ice cream. He'll ask for ice cream from time to time, while banging his beak against his bowl. He cannot eat Chocolate, so his has to be special! When he tasted this minty flavored ice cream, his response was, "OOOH!"

I used a Cuisinart ICE-20 that I bought brand new off of www.craigslist.com. Paid $20 for it and getting good use out of it now, especially after finding this recipe!

Yea no worries. Here is the link: http://www.amazon.com/Hamilton-Beach-68220-Cream-Maker/dp/B0006TN1XS/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=home-garden&qid=1199497617&sr=8-4 It's a pretty cheap one. I hear the Quisinarts are pretty good. :)

Hey Pam! So sorry about not knowing this. :( When the Ice-Cream maker was running I just dumped a TON of the nibs in while it was roatating. I should have measured. I don't measure anything. And for the Spirulina I put about a Tablespoon into the blender until it looked like the kind of green we are used to! The mint leaves I probably put about 6 or 7 leaves and 4-5 drops peppermint oil. :) Try it out. It's very tasty! You'll be hooked! I live across the street from Baskin Robbins and it's no match!

I know it's amazing. It's funny I eat this stuff late at night. It's all gone now and I can't wait to make more. The cacao nibs were a surpirse to me. I didn't think they would be as good as they were. It tasted just like the real thing. Mint Chocolate Chip Ice-Cream that is good for you! Amazing.
