Epic Peppermint Oreo Ice Cream


This is epic !! We had a party and everyone loved it! You have to have an ice cream maker though! You have to try this! I got this from the kitchen of Betsy Bass, a friend of my mom from Savannah.

Ingredients
1 1/4 cups milk
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups half & half
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 cups whipping cream
1 cup pink peppermint candies
15 oreos (more or less)

Put peppermints in a large plastic bag and break into pieces by pounding with a mallet or a rolling pin. Heat milk in a large sauce pan, adding the pieces of candy until dissolved. Remove milk from heat. Add sugar and salt , stirring until dissolved. Stir in half & half, vanilla , and whipping cream. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. When ready to freeze , crush 7 or 8 oreos and add to the milk mixture. Freeze as directed. Before putting the ice cream in the refrigerator, stir in the remaining 7 or 8 oreos ( break into pieces ).
