Notes

If it’s a hot summer day, I find it best to put it in the freezer for 30 -45 minutes to firm up and get a more ice cream like texture before eating it.

Have all your ingredients ready before you begin.

Work quickly and don’t over process or it will melt and loose it’s ‘ice cream’ texture.

Store in an air tight container in the freezer for 2-3 days.

You can also use extra ice cream in a smoothie.
