I'm a sucker for ice cream and enjoy homemade but am always hesitant to do it because of the effort involved. Not anymore! I keep the bowl in my deep freezer and then it's as easy as making the cream and flipping a switch. We have tried classic vanilla, mint chip, and cherry pecan. It's all been great! Definitely remember to start the mixer before pouring in the cream or it'll freeze up. New favorite kitchen accessory right here
