Philadelphia Ice Cream

The ice cream base can be mixed and refrigerated up to 2 days before churning. For fruit variations, macerate the fruit with 2 tablespoons sugar for 30 minutes, then stir into the chilled base just before churning. The churned ice cream can be made up to 1 week ahead.

Store in an airtight, freezer-safe container with plastic wrap pressed directly against the surface to prevent ice crystals. Freeze for up to 2 weeks for best quality. Let sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before scooping if frozen solid.
