Ice Cream Bars

Ingredients:

• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup whole milk
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• Pinch of salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips
• 1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Instructions:

1. In a medium saucepan, combine heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, and salt. Whisk over medium heat until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is warmed through, about 5-7 minutes.
2. Remove from heat and add vanilla extract. Let cool to room temperature.
3. Pour the mixture into a 9×13 inch baking pan and freeze for 2-3 hours or until partially set. You want the mixture to be firm enough to hold its shape, but not completely frozen.
4. Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave or on a double boiler, stirring until smooth.
5. Remove the pan from the freezer and cut the mixture into bars or squares. Dip each bar into the melted chocolate and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
6. Sprinkle chopped nuts over the chocolate, if desired.
7. Freeze the bars for an additional hour or until completely frozen.
