Perfect Ice Cream
I bought this ice cream maker because my mom loves ice cream, can’t get enough of it. So being the wonderful daughter I am, I decided to try my hand at making it. That’s kind of why I’m her favorite, lol, I go the distance for my mama. So I couldn’t decide for a while if I should go with the old school or cutting edge machine. The decision came down to quantity. You can’t make nearly as much with the new ice free machines, unless you spend the big bucks. I also decided to start making her ice cream because we’ve completely changed how we eat. We now eat as clean as we can afford and organic. The ice creams you can buy now days are mostly “frozen desserts” and the crap they shovel into them has gotten ridiculous. So my mission was a healthier ice cream with no junk. What follows is the recipe I came up with, it’s pretty amazing (mom’s words), lol. You can make it with the ingredients you prefer, for me I went completely organic. I also tried a new vanilla and the difference was dramatic! It was unbelievably good and the vanilla flavor, just wow! It’s very similar to the vanilla Breyers uses in taste but a little better. It’s Lafaza Organic Madagascar Bourbon Pure Ground Vanilla Bean Powder, 1oz. You can order it with your ice cream machine right here on Amazon. The ice cream maker worked beautifully and I wouldn’t have changed a thing except maybe an on/off switch. You have to plug it in to turn it on and unplug to shut it down. A minor issue, if you can even call it that. Oh gosh I forgot about the cord there for a second. It’s super short so have a plug close or grab a small extension. The machine did go through an entire large bag of ice so, make sure you have a lot before you begin. I had to top the ice off twice during the process so just keep an eye on it. It took about 30 minutes to churn it in total. I made sure my ice cream was cooled for 2 hrs before I put it in the mixer. If you don’t want to wait you can put it in earlier, you’ll just go through way more ice. I also waited until the ice cream was pretty firm before I shut it down. Below is my very simple, much healthier ice cream recipe. It’s an absolutely beautiful French vanilla or custard as some might call it. I’m old fashioned and eggs just make ice cream that much richer and oh so delicious. Enjoy! 7 egg yolks (organic, free range) 1 cup honey (local) 6 cups heavy whipping cream (organic grass fed) 1 cup whole milk (organic) 1 tsp Lafaza Organic Madagascar Bourbon Pure Ground Vanilla Bean Powder 1/8 tsp sea salt Whisk egg yolks and honey in a large mixing bowl and set aside. In a large pot mix together cream, milk, salt, and heat on medium heat until it’s roughly 155 degrees f, or until it starts to steam slightly. Take off the heat and temper your egg and honey mixture. Which is simply adding the cream mix to the egg mix very slowly, whisking the entire time. Then take the entire mixture and put it back into your large pot and cook until it reaches 175 degrees f. Do not go over 180 degrees. Take it off the heat and let cool for 30 min., then add your vanilla. Place plastic directly onto mixture so it doesn’t form a skin and cool for another 1 and 1/2 hrs. Then follow the directions for the ice cream maker. It’s that simple and it will be the best vanilla ice cream you have ever had, well, if not the best then top 3 at least, lol.

Fun, Easy, and Classic Way to Make Homemade Ice Cream at Home
I’ve been using this Nostalgia Electric Ice Cream Maker, and it has been such a fun addition to my kitchen. It brings that old-fashioned ice cream-making experience right into my home, but with the convenience of an electric machine, so I don’t have to do all the manual work. What I really like is how easy it is to use. I just prepare the ingredients, pour them into the aluminum canister, add ice and salt around it, and let the machine do the rest. In a relatively short time, I get fresh, creamy ice cream that tastes so much better than store-bought. It also works great for frozen yogurt and gelato, which gives me more variety to experiment with. The 4-quart capacity is perfect for family use or small gatherings. It makes a good amount in one batch, so everyone can enjoy it together. I also love the vintage wooden-style design, it looks nice in the kitchen and adds a nostalgic, classic feel to the whole experience. Cleaning is fairly simple as well, especially the removable canister, which makes it easier to wash after use. It does take a little prep time with ice and salt, but that’s part of the traditional charm and fun of it. Overall, this is a great machine for anyone who enjoys homemade desserts and wants a fun, interactive way to make ice cream. It’s easy, enjoyable, and brings a homemade touch that really makes desserts feel special.

plastic, but that's kinda standard for these today....
overall, this is exactly as i'd expect for an 'old fashioned' ice cream machine. works just as advertised. I noticed that there are 2 sizes (4qt and 6qt). I opted for the 6qt as i could always just make 4qt and have plenty of room for expansion (and to ensure the salt doesn't invade my ice cream). Well, it works as intended, but i really do wish i'd have just gotten the 4qt, but that's more on me than the design of this. The only complaint i have is that the gearing, paddle, and all are plastic and i'm not sure of the longevity that will have, but the unit worked great on its first mission.

Delicious results and easy to use.
This ice cream maker was a huge hit with the family! It’s simple to set up, runs smoothly, and makes creamy homemade ice cream in no time. The nostalgic design is really cute and looks great on the counter too. We’ve already tried several flavors, and everything turned out delicious. Cleanup was easier than expected, and the instructions were straightforward. Definitely worth it for anyone who loves homemade treats!
