Yield: fourteen servings (Freeze Bowl) Mix: 25 minutes Freeze: 2 hours

We decided to purchase an ice cream maker so we could do something together as a family on those hot summer days. The kids love helping and it is so easy. We found a maker that not only makes ice-cream; it also makes frozen yogurt and sorbet too! Just put the ingredients in the bowl and let the machine do the rest. The Cuisinart has a 2-Quart capacity so it is plenty big for the numerous times it will be dipped into. The machine is brushed stainless steel so it looks nice on the countertop. It has a large spout so you can add ingredients as it's churning. The wait time is 25 minutes or less. A perfect evening snack. A recipe booklet is included with carb counts and lots of recipes.

 

Simple Vanilla Ice Cream

1 1/2 cup whole milk

1 1/8 cups granulated sugar

3 cups heavy cream

1 1/2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract

 

In a bowl, mix and combine the milk and sugar until dissolved, about 2 minutes. Stir in the heavy cream and vanilla. Turn on the machine; pour the mixture into the frozen freezer bowl and let mix until thick, about 20 to 25 minutes. If you want the ice cream to be firmer just put plastic wrap over the bowl and place in the freezer for about 2 hrs.  We love to top our ice cream  with rainbow sprinkles 1teaspoon = 3 carbohydrates
