Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker

It’s not quite as exotic walking on hot coals… but I used to chase the neighborhood ice cream truck barefoot. If you’ve ever heard asphalt sizzle on a blistery Texas day, though, you know it’s pretty much the same thing.

These days I still love ice cream, but not all the weird additives and non-food ingredients in most commercial brands. After our garage sale ice cream maker went kaput a couple of years ago, the kids and I tried several, ahem, creative techniques for making it. Unfortunately they’ve never come close to the slow-churned goodness of real homemade ice cream, so you can imagine my excitement when Daddypotamus walked through the door with a Cuisanart Pure Indulgence last week. You guys, I am in LOVE!

  19. I would have my family come over and have a summer bbq-mother,daughter and her family,sister and her family, and of course my husband,son and I. YEARS ago when I was younger, on sunday’s my father (RIP) and mother had an ice cream maker, and we used the cream and milk from our milk cow and made homemade ice cream, my father got a kick out of showing us that we could make it ourselves and any flavor. such grand memory’s.

  21. I would share this with my son. He is on a no dairy, very low sugar “diet” and always feels left out when it comes to dessert time. I would love to get this and experiment with recipes using stevia!

  23. Mom and I both have food sensitivites… you know Aspartame, MSG, BGH, etc. etc. and IceCream is a big no no for us! There’s only one kind of Organic IceCream we can tolerate and it’s hard to find, of course. This is a wonderful idea and is very compact. Thanks for this giveaway!

  24. Definitely my kiddos! They love homemade ice cream and the little one that we bought when we were first married just doesn’t make “enough” anymore!! 😀

  25. My entire family, which includes my hubby’s family as well as friends; who doesn’t love homemade ice cream or frozen yogurt?

  26. Ah, I would be sharing this with my dear husband who LOVES ice cream. This Cuisinart would be a wonderful time-saver and it’s great that it does two qts. I haven’t been doing much ice cream since my methods take a long time and we won’t buy it at the store due to all the toxic chemicals. Thanks for offering this.
