Ingredients

ml 2,000 vanilla ice cream
10 piece (s) chocolate (peppermint tablets)
Food coloring, green
100 g chocolate flakes, dark
125 ml peppermint syrup
750 ml ice cream (chocolate ice cream)
30 g bakin cocoa

For decoration:

100 g dark chocolate
10 piece (s) chocolate (peppermint sticks)

Instructions

For the peppermint ice cream, let the vanilla ice cream thaw a little and then beat it with peppermint syrup and food coloring to a mint green cream. Then carefully fold in the chocolate shavings and the peppermint tablets and fill a cake tin 2/3 full with them. Place in the freezer for 1.5 hours.
For the tart chocolate ice cream, defrost the chocolate ice cream you bought and mix with baking cocoa. Pour on the solid peppermint mixture and let freeze for 1 hour.
For the chocolate layer, melt the dark chocolate, let it cool down a little and then quickly pour over the chocolate ice cream layer.
The ice should be frozen through before further processing, preferably overnight.
For the decoration, melt the dark chocolate and quickly pour it over the ice cream cake again. Then place the peppermint sticks on the chocolate and serve the ice cream cake as soon as possible.
