How to Make Peppermint Bon Bon

  1. Crush 1 ½ cups graham crackers into fine crumbs. Mix with 6 tablespoons melted butter until evenly moistened. Press into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. Melt 8 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips with 2 tablespoons of butter in a double boiler or microwave (in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth).
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large egg yolks, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until pale and thick.
  4. In a clean bowl, beat 2 large egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture.
  5. Stir the melted chocolate mixture into the egg yolk and white mixture until combined.
  6. Pour the chocolate mixture evenly over the graham cracker crust in the prepared pan.
  7. Freeze for at least 1 hour, or until firm.
  8. Spread 2 pints of peppermint ice cream evenly over the frozen chocolate layer.
  9. Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until solid before serving. Let sit at room temperature for about 5-10 minutes before serving for easier scooping.
