There’s a popular brand here in Minnesota called Kemps Ice Cream that makes a “Peppermint Bon Bon” flavor. It’s my absolute favorite ice cream of all time.
Despite the name, it’s the good “creme de menthe” mint, not the strong York peppermint patties kind. And the chocolate is just fine shavings, so they melt in your mouth without any hard or chunky texture in your smooth ice cream.
The brand was bought by some ice cream company in Kansas City, but it’s still headquartered here in Minnesota, so I believe the brand has spread out across the Midwest a bit. If you’re in the region, you should seek it out.
Not sure I can trust ice cream from Minnesota. I’d think ice cream from Texas or Florida would be better, when it’s a consumable utility for beating the heat. I quite imagine Minnesota as always being at/below freezing.

Joking, of course — it sounds awesome.
They also make the absolute best ice cream sandwiches.
