âť“ Q&A
Q: Why is my ice cream icy instead of creamy?
A: Usually due to low fat or overmixing. Use full-fat cream and don’t over-stir after whipping.
Q: Can I make it without condensed milk?
A: Yes, but you’ll need sugar + a custard base (egg yolks) for similar creaminess.
Q: How do I get that soft scoop texture?
A: Let it sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before serving.
Q: Can I add more mix-ins?
A: Definitely—cookies, nuts, brownies, or caramel work great.
Q: How long does it last?
A: Best within 1–2 weeks in the freezer (covered tightly).
