I'm dying here... I need some cool relief!

Y'all I am HOT!!! No, not that kind of hot... HOT like Hell HOT!!! Who can stand it? It has been 101 -104 degrees here.  So YES, I am once again posting something cool and refreshing because it is all I think about. Snow, snow-cones, ice, ice cream, cold lemonade, iced tea, iced coffee... do you get the picture?
So, today it is Ice Cream. I've taken this recipe straight from the Eagle Brand Milk website.


It is Mint Chocolate Chip Ice... one of my favorites!!!


Ingredients

1 (14-ounce) can EAGLE BRAND� Sweetened Condensed Milk (NOT evaporated milk)
2 teaspoons peppermint extract

Green food coloring (optional)

2 cups (1 pint) half-and-half

2 cups (1 pint) whipping cream, unwhipped
3/4 cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions
In large bowl, combine EAGLE BRAND�, peppermint extract and food coloring (optional); mix well. Stir in remaining ingredients.
Pour into ice cream freezer container. Freeze according to manufacturer�s instructions. Freeze leftovers. 

 Check out Lisa's blog for Mr. Linky!


Thanks you Eagle Brand Milk for today's recipe!

I am going to love this when I make it....although here in Pennsylvania we would like some of that hot weather you are talking about. We will be getting RAIN for the next 3 or so days...
