Peppermint Ice Cream
- 2 1/2 cups 2% reduced-fat milk, divided
- 2 large egg yolks
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 (14-ounce) can fat-free sweetened condensed milk
- 2/3 cup crushed peppermint candies (about 26 candies)
- Combine 1 1/4 cups reduced-fat milk and egg yolks in a heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring with a whisk. Cook over medium heat 9 minutes or until mixture is slightly thick and coats the back of a spoon, stirring constantly (do not boil). Cool egg mixture slightly.
- Combine remaining 1 1/4 cups reduced-fat milk, vanilla, and condensed milk in a large bowl. Gradually add egg mixture, stirring with a whisk. Cover and chill thoroughly. Stir in crushed candies.
