Ingredients

2 1/2 cup Milk
2 3/4 cup Sugar
1 teaspoon Salt
2 1/2 cup Half and half
1 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
6 cup Whipping cream
12 ounce Chocolate chips

Directions

1
In a large saucepan, combine the milk, sugar, and salt over medium heat.
2
Heat the mixture, stirring frequently, until the sugar is completely dissolved and the milk begins to steam (do not boil).
3
Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.
4
Stir in the half-and-half, vanilla extract, and whipping cream until well combined.
5
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the liquid to prevent a skin from forming.
6
Refrigerate the mixture for at least 30 minutes, or until thoroughly chilled.
7
Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream freezer and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions.
8
During the last 5 minutes of churning, add the chocolate chips so they distribute evenly throughout the ice cream.
9
Transfer the finished ice cream to a freezer-safe container.
10
Cover tightly and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm, before serving.
