One tip for the home ice cream maker: if you want small flakes of white chocolate throughout use Green and Black white chocolate, but if you don’t mind large (and some gigantic) chunks of chocolate you can use Ghirardelli—it just doesn’t melt as well.

This is my fourth time making this flavor of ice cream. I made it for work, then my family for Memorial Day, Nathan Hale’s b-day celebration, and today for the first day celebrating yummy ice cream. The third time was by far the best I made, all because I used Green & Black chocolate.
Despite the fact that the white chocolate ended up as huge chunks of chocolate, every time it tasted divine.

Here’s what my co-worker’s had to say.

Love the explosion of flavors in my mouth and the mint taste at the end is refreshing. –Jo Ann

Tablespoon of pure deliciousness. Wow! *Insert sigh of contentment (the planned one scoop turned into two.) Perfect mixture of butter and mint with the surprisingly wonderful chunks of white chocolate. I’d say Day 1 was a success! –Brooke

Buttery, rich amazingness. My taste buds did a dance. Pregnant women craving ice cream…oh, this was just the mother-load of all craving satisfiers. I especially enjoy the white chocolate that comes through at the end. –Kelli Jo

Ice cream is smooth and creamy. It has just the right amount of mintiness. Was good and refreshing.
