I just saw this recipe in my local paper today and had to post for Coquille......for PEPPERMINT CANDIES!  I posted a recipe with piece of candy cane earlier but this would have really been good to post ....... 

PEPPERMINT Chocolate Chip No Churn Ice Cream

18 chocolate-PEPPERMINT CANDIES such as Peppermint Patties

2  3/4 cups heavy cream

1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk

1 cup mini chocolate chips, plus 2 tablespoons for garnish

1/2 cup crushed PEPPERMINT CANDIES or candy canes

2 cups mini marshmallows

Put a 9x5x3" metal loaf pan in freezer to chill.  Put the chocolate-PEPPERMINT CANDIES  and 3/4 cup of heavy cream in medium saucepan over medium heat to cook, stirring frequently, until candies are melted, about 5 minutes.  Cool completely.

Meanwhile, whip the remaining 2 cups heavy cream in large bowl with an electric mixer on medium high until firm peaks form, about 2 minutes.  Pour the condensed milk into into a medium bowl and fold in 1 cup of the whipped cream with rubber spatula until combined, then fold the lightened mixture back into the whipped cream until well blended. Gently fold in marshmallows and 1 cup of mini chocolate chips.

Remove 2 tablespoons of the chocolate sauce and set aside. Pour a third of the ice cream mixture into the chilled pan, then top with half of the remaining chocolate sauce.  Repeat with 1/3 more of the ice cream mixture,then the remaining chocolate sauce.  Cover with the remaining ice cream mixture.  Drizzle top with the reserved chocolate sauce and sprinkle with crushed PEPPERMINT CANDIES and 2 tablespoons chocolate chips.  Loosely cover with plastic wrap and freeze about 3 hours or overnight.
