Help me save some mint chocolate chip
I mixed up some base for mint chocolate chip ice cream. Seems like it should be easy, but I messed it up and hoping there is a way to save it. I use a custard base that I use for other flavors (4 yolks, 1.5 c cream, 1 c milk, 1/4 milk powder, just over 1/2 c. sugar). I add vanilla to all my recipes, but I only used 1/2 tsp. I added 2 tbl creme de menthe and 2 tsp. mint extract. It tastes like egg nog. I know the vanilla is the primary culprit, also, these eggs have much darker yolks than ones I usually use. I added several more tbl of creme de menthe and several more tsp of mint extract, and while it has a hint of mint flavor, the predominant taste is egg nog. It's in my refrigerator chilling. Before I churn it, is there any way to salvage this? Mind you, I'll still eat it (for science), but I really wanted mint chip ice cream.
