Cook notes

1. Make sure the heavy whipping cream you use is cold, straight from the fridge.

• If the temperature around you is too warm, freeze the mixing bowl to be used in whipping the cream for a few hours before using it to whip the cream.
• Or place the bowl with the whipping cream over another bowl with ice then proceed with whipping. It is important that the cream remains cold as you whip it so it can easily thicken and form stiff peaks.

2. Once the heavy whipping cream forms stiff peaks, stop beating. If you continue beating, it will become butter. If this happens. add a little milk and whip again so it can get back to the texture of whipped cream.

3. Freeze the ice cream in a loaf pan. A loaf pan provides a large surface area for scooping the ice cream. There are also special ice cream containers you could get just for freezing ice cream but that is totally up to you.
