As my wife said after tasting this the first time, "it's like mint-chocolate chip ice cream, only better". It makes commercial versions seem like, well, imitations of the real thing. Yes, this recipe is the Platonic ideal.

There's nothing I'd change in the recipe - I used a cup of fresh peppermint leaves which were growing in our ditch and I steeped them for a nice long time in the cream mixture before making the custard. I used melted semisweet chocolate, drizzled in at the end of the churning process.

Both of my children said this was the best ice cream they'd ever tasted, and it's got to be in my top five (and this includes gelato from all over Italy too).
