RECIPE TIPS
The recipes that follow offer you a variety of options for
delicious frozen desserts. You may create or use recipes of
your own, as long as they yield no more than 1.5 litres.
• Frozen desserts from the Cuisinart
®
Fruit Scoop™ Frozen
Dessert Maker use pure, fresh ingredients. Because of
this, the desserts and drinks do not have the same
characteristics as commercially prepared frozen desserts
and drinks. Most store-bought versions use gums and
preservatives to make them firmer. If you desire a firmer
consistency, transfer the dessert to an airtight
container and store in the freezer until desired
consistency is reached, usually two or more hours.
• Some recipes use precooked ingredients. For best results,
the mixture should be chilled overnight before using.
Or, chill the recipe over an ice bath until it is completely
cooled, before using.
• To make an ice bath, fill a large container with ice and
water. Place saucepan or other container into the ice
bath. Cool precooked ingredients completely.
• Prior to freezing, most recipes may be stored in the
refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• You may substitute lower-fat creams (e.g., half and half),
milk (reduced fat or low-fat) as well as non-dairy milks
(soy, rice) for thickened cream and whole milk used in
many recipes. However, keep in mind that the higher the
fat content, the richer and creamier the result. Using
lower-fat substitutes may change the taste, consistency
and texture of the dessert. When substituting, be sure to
use the same volume of the substitute as you would have
used of the original item. For example, if the recipe calls
for 2 cups of cream, use a total of 2 cups of the substitute
(such as 1 cup cream, 1 cup whole milk).
• You may substitute artificial sweeteners for sugar. If the
recipe is to be precooked, add the sweetener after the
heating process is complete and ingredients have cooked.
Stir the mixture thoroughly to dissolve the sweetener.
• In recipes that use alcohol, add the alcohol during the last
2 minutes of the freezing process. Otherwise, the alcohol
may impede the freezing process.
• When making sorbet, be sure to test the ripeness and
sweetness of the fruit before you use it. The freezing
process reduces the sweetness of the fruit so that it will
taste less sweet than the recipe mixture. If the fruit tastes
tart, add sugar to the recipe. If the fruit is very ripe or
sweet, reduce the amount of sweetener such as honey or
sugar in the recipe.
• The following Cuisinart recipes will yield up to 1.5 litres of
dessert. When pouring ingredients in through the
ingredient spout, DO NOT fill the freezer bowl higher than
7cm from the top of the freezer bowl. The ingredients will
increase in volume during the freezing process.
• When making more than one recipe at a time, be sure the
freezer bowl is completely frozen before each use.
Additional freezer bowls may be purchased on the
Cuisinart website ( www.cuisinart.com.au ).
• Make sure mixing paddle and lid are in place before
turning on machine.
