The homemade ice cream experience started with a hose malfunction... Okay it wasn't that dramatic to make homemade ice cream. One of our wedding presents was an ice cream maker and I was pretty pumped to use it. The hose malfunction was in the process to get the wood bucket ready to put ice and salt in it. We decided to make the easy chocolate ice cream recipe found with the manual for the ice cream machine.
It was actually quite easy to do once we got everything we needed to make the ice cream. I think we need to learn how to now ignore directions after we have read them (okay maybe that was just the husband who needs to do that). Our ice cream turned out a little on the runny side, but it was still very tasty. We added fresh raspberries to the mix and it was excellent.
