My Favorite Winter Treat!

You guys are going to think I am so weird, but one of my absolute favorite winter treats is ice cream!  This is even weirder when you take into account that I am from northern Minnesota, where it snows quite a bit.  Of course, the ice cream of choice for this season is a little more festive, in that I absolutely love candy cane ice cream.  I haven't been able to find it yet this year, though I did find a recipe to make it that I'm definitely going to try!


Ingredients:

• 2 1/2 cups whipping cream, whipped
• 3/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
• 7 peppermint candy canes, crushed

Directions

• Put the cream and condensed milk in a large bowl and whisk until blended
• Add in the candy canes and stir until just mixed through
• Transfer to a tupperware container for freezing
• After an hour, remove from freezer and stir, making sure the candy cane bits don't stick the the bottom
• Repeat the last step for a couple more hours, and let sit overnight, so you can enjoy it in the morning!
