Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 1/2 cup milk, whole
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon McCormick Vanilla Extract
1/2 teaspoon McCormick Peppermint Extract
1/4 cups peppermint candy, crushed to mostly powder, plus more for topping
1 pinch salt

Steps:

Peppermint Crunch Ice Cream
In a medium bowl, whisk together milk, heavy whipping cream, granulated sugar, salt, and McCormick Vanilla and Peppermint Extracts until sugar has dissolved.
Pour in crushed candy cane, mixing until mostly dissolved. It's okay if the candy clumps - the ice cream maker will slowly separate them.
Remove ice cream bowl/attachment from freezer and attach/place it per your ice cream maker's instructions. Pour prepared ice cream mixture into the chilled bowl/attachment.
Churn ice cream for 30-35 minutes or until desired consistency is reached.
If you'd like soft ice cream, serve peppermint crunch ice cream immediately with additional crushed peppermint candy on top. If you'd like firmer ice cream, transfer the ice cream to a storage container, sprinkle the top with additional crushed peppermint candy, and let it freeze for 2-4 hours.
