There is mint, and then there is creme de menthe. Do not confuse the two, for other than a lingering freshness and tongue-tingling sensation, they are as different as two different mints can be. What is creme de menthe? Think Andes mints. It's a much creamier mint flavor, not nearly as sharp or spicy, that pretty much requires a pairing with dark chocolate. This ice cream makes creme de menthe even cooler. Literally. The pale green ice cream is speckled with Andes mint baking chips for a double dose of minty sweetness. Taylor found these Andes mint baking chips at Walmart. I don't know about you but Andes mints have always been one of my favorite treats. I could easily eat an entire box in one sitting. Restaurants that delivered Andes mints with your check instead of the stupid little starlight mints always got extra points in my book. So it was no surprise that these chips made me very excited. I enjoyed the first bag so much that I sent Taylor back to get more. On a Saturday
