"This soy cream is great! It was my first time making ice cream at home. I had to make some recipe modifications due to what I had on hand. I used Frangelico hazelnut liqueur and some agave as hazeln..." See moreut syrup... I later read in my user manual that alcohol should be added towards the end of the ice cream cycle or it might not set up right... didn't seem to be an issue, but since this is my first time, how would I know? I didn't have chocolate chips, so I manufactured my own melted chocolate: coconut oil, cocoa powder, and confectioner's sugar. The ice cream tasted like mocha, hazelnut flavor not noticeable. The base is great and will be a lot of fun to work with. Thanks, Tori, I made a double batch!"
