Peppermint Ice Cream (from Cooking Light)

"From the December 2003 issue of Cooking Light. It is creamy, yummy and low fat. A good way to get rid of those post-Christmas RED candy canes. (Don't use the green and red peppermint candy canes unless you want grey ice cream)"

  1. This is very nice. I like that it is a Cooking ight recipe that tastes great. I added the crushed pieces of candy (I used candy canes) to the mixture but the ice cream machine totally crushed them because it was all smooth. Next time I will add the candies in the last 5 minutes of churning. I will definitely make this again. Thanks!
