Method

Put the cream, egg yolks and sugar in a saucepan and place over a medium heat stirring frequently to prevent the mixture burning. Heat to just below boiling point which will ensure the egg is cooked and the sugar is dissolved.

Transfer mixture to a jug and allow to cool fully. Mix in the creme de menthe (or peppermint extract) and chocolate, then churn it in an ice cream maker following the manufacturers instructions.
