Instructions
- Add first seven ingredients to jar in order listed and secure lid. Select "Ice Cream" cycle.
Note: If your Blendtec doesn’t feature an Ice Cream/Frozen Yogurt button, blend on a Low speed for 15 seconds, then blend on a Medium High speed for 30 seconds. If more blending is required, press pulse several times until desired texture is achieved. Pulse in chocolate chips.
Which jar should I use? Have a deluxe machine with presets which is very nice. Have a twister jar and a wildside.
The recipe says to add the first 7 items and blend. Then pulse in the chips. Is this wrong. Should I wait for the chips and do the spinach? This is all very new to me.
I am allergic to milk. I can use coconut milk combined with soy or almond milk in place of the half and half, but can I leave out the sweetened condensed milk?
Tried this and was the best mint chocolate chip ice cream I’ve ever had! Even threw in 1/4 of an avocado as suggested by a blendtec rep and it made it even creamier!!
Can you use regular ice cubes instead of whole milk cubes? If so, should i use less ice cubes and maybe more half and half or condensed milk?
