    Most Cuisinart ice maker models will work for these recipes, but this Cuisinart 1.5-Quart Ice Cream Maker is very popular and comes at a great price point.

    How long does it take to churn ice cream in a Cuisinart ice cream maker?

    After you have poured the ice cream mixture into the frozen bowl, it will need to churn for about 15-20 minutes, or until it has thickened. You can serve it immediately or allow it to firm up more by freezing it for 1-2 hours before serving. 

    Do you need rock salt for a Cuisinart ice cream maker?

    No salt is needed for these Cuisinart ice cream maker recipes. This is one of the many reasons I love this ice cream maker. 

    How long does it take a Cuisinart ice cream bowl to freeze?

    According to the Cuisinart website, the bowl takes about 6-22 hours to freeze. The liquid inside of the bowl should be completely solid.
