Its very rich,thick and creamy. The recipe came from a blog called Frolic and Fare. I changed the recipe around and got rid of the chocolate chips. For sugar, I added Monk Fruit sugar to keep it keto and low sugar friendly.

INSTRUCTIONS
Place your mint and milk in a high-speed blender and process until fully blended. Strain the mixture and discard any pieces of mint, keeping only the fresh mint milk. Set aside.Crack your egg yolks into a medium or large mixing bowl and whisk vigorously. Feel free to save the whites for macaroons or an omelet.Combine sugar, your mint milk, cream, egg yolks, vanilla, and salt in a medium saucepan.Stir over low heat for 10-15 minutes to get a slow reduction, to thicken the egg yolk, and melt the sugars down. Be sure not to overheat, or else you’ll curdle your milk and cook your eggs. Stir consistently.Let sit for two hours to chill.When ready to make your ice cream, pour the chilled mixture into the freezer bowl of your ice cream maker. Turn your ice cream maker on and let it churn based on the manufacturer’s recommendations. For me, it usually takes 20 – 30 minutes. While it’s churning, add in your chocolate chips. Once it’s done churning, it will have the consistency of soft serve ice cream.Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and let it chill in the freezer for at least six hours. From here, you should have perfect, scoopable ice cream!
