Hi Adriana, do you have instructions on how to make the recipe without an ice-cream maker?
You can try stirring the mixture while it freezes every 30 minutes to 1 hr with an electrical hand mixer or a wooden spoon. Do this until it freezes and it should help to maintain the creamy texture. Please let me know how it goes.
Thanks so much Adriana! I’ll give it a go and let you know how it works out! P.S – maybe it’s time to invest in an ice-cream maker!
can I substitute cornstarch for the arrowroot powder ?
Hi Diana, I haven’t tried it but it should also work.
Hi I was wondering how long you have to refridgerate mixture before adding to the icecream maker? Overnight can be anything up to 7 – 8 hrs so my question is I guess what is the minimum time required to refridgerate?
Thanks
Pauline, the colder the mixture is before you put it in your ice cream maker the better the consistency of your ice cream will be. There’s no specific time to chill the mixture and 7 – 8 hours (or longer) should be plenty of time.
Any suggestions for subbing out the egg?
you can leave the egg out
