How Long Does The Ice Cream Take to Freeze?
It will take around two hours for the ice cream to freeze to a soft scoop texture, and three to four if you prefer it more solid. This ice cream is scoop-able straight from the loaf tin, but you can also line the tin with plastic wrap to remove it in one piece and then serve it sliced.
Tips
- Make sure the heavy cream is cold before you whip it.
- Line the loaf tin with plastic wrap if you wish to remove the whole block rather than scoop it.
- After two hours of freezing, the ice cream will be at a soft serve consistency, freeze it longer if you prefer it to be more solid.
To Store
Freeze covered in an airtight container or covered in plastic wrap up to two weeks.
