How to Make Ice Cream (cont.)

9

Ice cream is done when it looks like “soft serve.” A thin layer of ice cream may stick to the out- side of bowl; this is normal. Turn OFF (O); then let sit with mixing paddle/lid still attached for about 2 minutes, allowing the ice cream to freeze further.

Unit will not turn OFF automatically. You must press switch to OFF (O) to stop churning. Unplug from outlet.

TO MAKE:

6 ounces (180 ml)

12 ounces (360 ml)

Remove lid. Frozen mixture may be eaten directly out of the freezer bowl. To prevent surface scratch- ing, using plastic utensils is recom- mended when eating directly from freezer bowls.

CHURN APPROXIMATELY:

5–6 minutes

8–9 minutes

After turning unit off, let it sit with the paddle and lid still attached for approximately 2 minutes (see Step 10).

NOTE: If the ice cream mixture is too thick, or sat in freezer bowl too long before churning, the paddle may struggle and/or reverse directions. Turn unit OFF (O), break up the mixture in the bowl with a spoon, replace the paddle, and turn back ON (I).
