1-1/4 quarts (1.25 L).

Process normally.
7. DO NOT OVER-PROCESS ICE CREAM. If the Canister movement slows down or stops,

TIPS FOR TASTY DESSERTS
1. Always use pure vanilla and other extracts. Imitations will lose flavor when frozen.
2. When cooking eggs for a mixture, cook on low heat, stirring constantly.
Do not allow mixture to overheat and curdle. Freezing a curdled mixture
will make ice cream very lumpy.
3. Instead of chopping chocolate chips, melt them and allow to cool slightly.
When ice cream is almost finished, pour melted mixture in a thin stream
through Center Feed. Chocolate will harden immediately and form
a
shaved chocolate” appearance in ice cream.
4. Chopped fruit and nuts mix in more easily than whole pieces.
5. Food coloring should be added sparingly. Always add prior to freezing.
Mix thoroughly.
6. Alcohol inhibits freezing. Do not use! Use flavorings or extracts.
