Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream

We have been experimenting with the small Krups ice cream maker we got at the thrift store last year for $5.00.

D asked for his favorite, mint chocolate chip. It's a custard base, and you infuse fresh mint into the milk as you heat it. It's really good. It's a rich, golden custard color, with the palest tint of green from the mint. I would have put bigger chunks of better, darker chocolate . . . but D likes Nestle's milk chocolate chips. It's his favorite and his request, so he is entitled.
