Notes
- Based on a recipe from Ninja Test Kitchen.
- In order for the ice cream to process correctly, make sure your ice cream mixture has been in the freezer for the full 24 hours and is completely frozen.
- Use the re-spin function if your ice cream isn’t creamy enough. If it’s still not the right texture, add a splash of cream or milk and re-spin again.
- Double this recipe to batch prep and freeze a couple of pints at once so you can process whenever those cravings strike.
- Keep your favorite mix-ins stashed in the freezer so they're frozen and ready to use when you add them
- Storage - ice cream can be stored in a sealed container inside the freezer for up to a month.
