I was not compensated for this review. All opinions are my own.
If you should know anything about me, its that I am a lover of my family and a lover of ice cream!
I've been searching for the right deal on an ice cream maker for a while now, probably since we moved to Pennsylvania. Fun activities to do with the kids have been on my mind 95% of the time and I always thought making our own ice cream would be a great time!
Inside my searches for a great Ice Cream Maker I ran across the Hamilton Beach Half Pint Soft-Serve Maker on Amazon.com. It was priced at just over $25, so of course this piqued my interest. What surprised me even more was when I found this same maker as I was wandering though my local Target this week! Even better, it was on Clearance!! Of course I jumped on the opportunity to own this little piece of mechanical heaven!
Finally, Ally and I got to work making our sorbet! The recipe we decided on was a Pinterest find. You can find it here, but be advised the website is in French. You'll need to translate it! http://www.lacuisinedenathalie.com/article-sorbet-a-la-fraise-recette-facile-118302093.html
It was pretty easy to get going.. Just pour our chilled mixture into the frozen bowl and turn the maker on. Wait 5-15 minutes (per the directions) and voila! We let ours turn for about 12 minutes before turning the maker off. It was a thick consistency and quite the yummy flavor!
I even got the approval of the little guy!
I really enjoyed this Ice Cream Maker. It is the perfect size for a quick treat for the night for yourself or to share. I think I'll try a chocolate chip next time!
