### Mint Chocolate Chip

#### Mix-Ins

* 2 tsp. peppermint extract
* 4 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips<sup>*</sup>

<sup>*</sup>added gradually in the last minutes of churning.

#### Notes

* The chocolate chips can be substituted
    with a finely chopped chocolate bar,
    providing a more interesting texture
    and a more "homemade" feeling result.
    Note that chopping the chocolate bar
    will be laborious and quite messy.

<sup>*</sup>BOD Oreo.
