Chocolate Chip Lime Ice Cream
Chocolate Chip Lime Ice Cream is very creamy but the sharp lime flavour from the Lime Curd cuts through the richness and the little nuggets of dark chocolate really do make it taste like those Chocolate Lime sweets.

Notes
Because of the high sugar and fat content in the curd, the ice cream doesn’t go rock hard, nor does it form ice crystals so you can make it successfully without an ice cream maker.
