[QUOTE="Prem51, post: 2002165, member: 209498"] Hi [USER=461597]@PenguinMum[/USER] Yes I use an ice cream maker. It is the Cuisinart Ice Cream & Gelato Professional model. i bought it last summer, and only made 2 batches then which didn't come out too well. But I saw a few 600ml tubs of single cream for 49p in the reduced section in Waitrose a couple of weeks ago and thought I'd give it another go. I made 3 batches of vanilla, banana and pistachio ice cream, which all turned out well. I followed a recipe I found on internet for vanilla ice cream, which is basically making a custard with cream, milk, egg yolks and sugar, just substituting sweetener for the sugar. For the banana and pistachio versions I added banana flavouring, and pistachio flavouring and pistachios. I made about 1 litre of each, which is the maximum you can make in this machine - it will expand during mixing and freezing. The instructions don't say what the minimum amount would be but I'd guess 500ml - anyway you can freeze any surplus you don't want to eat immediately. The machine mixes and freezes in about 45 minutes, though it's best to cool the mixture in fridge overnight beforehand. This machine is a bit dear - i think it was £220, and I don't think I will be using the gelato making paddle which produces a harder ice cream. Cuisinart are making a model now just for ice cream which costs around £180, which would have been ok for me. [/QUOTE]
