Store ice cream in a covered container in the freezer for a couple hours to let it firm up more. Scoop, serve... and enjoy!
No ice cream maker? In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream on high for about 10 minutes until stiff peaks begin to form. In separate bowl, stir together milk, peppermint extract, food coloring and chocolate bits and flakes. Fold the whipping cream gently into milk mixture until combined. Pour mixture into a 2-3 quart container; cover. Put the covered container into the freezer; let it freeze for a minimum of 6 -7 hours. Serve, and enjoy!
