Description

This festive and easy homemade peppermint bark ice cream combines rich white chocolate, chocolate chunks, and crushed peppermint candy with a creamy no-churn ice cream base.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 4 ounces white chocolate, chopped
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 5 (1.55 ounce) Hershey’s chocolate bars, chopped (7.75 oz chocolate)
  • 1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp crushed peppermint candy canes


Instructions

  1. Line a 9×5 loaf pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. Combine the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Set aside.
  3. Melt the chopped white chocolate in 30-second increments, stirring well between each, until melted and smooth.
  4. Pour the melted white chocolate into the sweetened condensed milk mixture in 3 parts, whisking together until well combined after each addition. Set mixture aside.
  5. Add the heavy whipping cream to a large mixing bowl and whip on high speed until stiff peaks form.
  6. Gently fold the whipped cream into the sweetened condensed milk in two parts.
  7. Add the chopped chocolate and crushed candy canes and gently fold until evenly dispersed. Try not to over-stir it all or the red color of the candy canes will make the ice cream pink.
  8. Pour the ice cream into the prepared pan, cover, and freeze at least 4-6 hours or overnight.
