Eggs (4)
with
Granulated Sugar (3/4 cup)

Salt (1 pinch)
until they are fluffy and pale yellow in color.

Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips (1/2 cup)
.
Step 4
Stir until chocolate chips have melted.

Step 10
Churn the ice cream mixture according to your ice cream maker’s instructions.

After a while it should look like this. You could be done here. You could place this lovely chocolate ice cream into a freezer container and be done with it. Or you could add peanut butter.
Step 12
Layer a bit of the ice cream with a bit of straight up
Creamy Natural Peanut Butter (1/4 cup)
