Notes
Ingredients and Substitutions:Whipping cream: there are no substitutions for whipping cream in this recipe since the high fat and air incorporated will make a smooth and creamy ice cream.Greek yogurt: I like adding some Greek yogurt to cut some of the sweetness. You can omit it if you like. Choose a high-fat plain yogurt so that it doesn't become icy.Additions: there are so many ways to make this your own! Here are a few of our favorites:
Lemon zest or lemon curd
Crumbled cookies
Jams and jellies
Nutella or cookie butter
Peanut butter
Cream cheese
Mint Extract or other extracts
Mini chocolate chips or shaved chocolate
Storage
Freeze: Store your homemade ice cream in an airtight container that's also freezer safe and in the freezer for up to 2 months. Sit it at room temperature for about 10 minutes before serving it.
