Vance's Darifree Fake Milk

[VydorScope]

I am such an idiot--I was in Wal Mart this morning, and meant to look at ice cream makers--I'm dying to try the Vance's recipe! Well, I forgot--I remembered only what was on my list--I guess I now have to write everything down

hehehehe I must say the Cuisanart one I got is very nice, MUCH better then the Walmart/GE one I got last time that I wore out fast.

So Cuisanart worked out better? I'll have to go to Kohl's and take a look--there's one right up the road from Wal Mart. Gotta make me some ice cream How you feeling now Vincent?

Oh by far. The Walmart/GE brand one was $39 or somthing in taht range, the Cuisanart is around $50 at my Bed Bath Beyond, and I had %20 off coupon. Makes it comparably priced, but SOOO MUCH BETTER. They look deceptivily the same, but the difference is astounding.

Also, DO NOT try to cut corners, freeze the canister completly as per the directions before you use it. It makes a big differnces, also make sure you assemble and turn it on BEFORE adding any ingredients (again pre the directions), that makes a HUGE difference too...

ITs realy very easy to use though....

Will do--thanks!

I'm lucky...I have a big upright freezer and keep my icecream maker in there at all times in a bag--ready to go!

Well guys, I finally bought my ice cream machine!!! I got the Cuisinart--the same one Vincent has. (it was $49.99 and I had a $60 gift card still from my birthday, so it worked out perfect!) I washed and dried the parts and put the bowl in the freezer. Tomorrow (or tonight if the bowl freezes) I'm going to make chocolate ice cream! It has to be at least 2 years since I've had ice cream

Jen--did you try butter pecan yet? I thought of you because the recipe booklet that came with my machine has a recipe for it

Can you tell I'm excited?

YEA!!!! I am really really going to make the icecream tonight!! Vincent--maybe the other recipes have oil in them to add a little fat back into the "icecream" ? I think I might try to make cinnamon icecream--yummy yummy !!!!

Its possible, not thought of that actaully.

[jenvan]

So I made the cinnamon ice cream last night and it tasted really good. DH liked it too! One thing I noticed...it melted pretty quickly... Next time I may try adding a little oil to see if adding some fat back in helps. Did you try it yet Patti??

[jerseyangel]

Yes! I made chocloate. I made it in the machine in the afternoon, and put it right into a plastic container and into the freezer. By the time I had some last night, it had frozen and was very good. I thought it tasted almost like a fudgesicle. I kind of threw together my own recipe--4 cups Vances, 1 cup sugar, 1/2 cup cocoa powder (Nestles Pure), 1 Tbsp. vanilla. Jen--your cinnamon sounds good! There's a banana/chocolate recipe that uses cinnamon that came with my machine that I will probably try next. Let me know if the oil does anything.
