FREEZING TIME AND
BOWL PREPARATION
The freezer bowl must be completely frozen
before you begin your recipe. Before freezing,
hand wash and dry the bowl. The length of time
needed to reach the frozen state depends on how
cold your freezer is. It is recommended that you
place the freezer bowl in the back of your freezer
where it is coldest. Be sure to place the freezer
bowl on a flat surface in its upright position for
even freezing.
Generally, freezing time is between 16 and 24
hours. Shake the bowl to determine whether it is
completely frozen. If you do not hear the liquid
within the bowl moving, the cooling liquid is
therefore frozen. For the most convenient frozen
desserts and drinks, leave your freezer bowl in the
freezer at all times. Use the bowl immediately after
removing from the freezer. It will begin to quickly
defrost once it has been removed from the freezer.
Reminder: Your freezer should be set to -18°C to
ensure proper freezing of all foods.
MAKING FROZEN DESSERTS
1. Prepare recipe ingredients from pages that
follow or from your own recipe. If you use your
own recipe, be sure it yields 1½ litres or less.
2. Remove the freezer bowl from the freezer.
Place freezer bowl on the center of the base.
NOTE: Bowl will begin to defrost quickly once
it has been removed from freezer. Use it
immediately after removing from freezer.
3. Place mixing paddle in freezer bowl. It just
rests in the center of the bowl, with the circle
side facing up.
4. Place lid on base and rotate clockwise until
tabs on lid lock in place on base.
5. Press On/Off switch to ON position. Freezer
bowl will begin to turn.
6. Immediately pour ingredients through
ingredients spout.
NOTE: Ingredients must be added to the
freezer bowl after unit is turned on.
7. Frozen desserts will be done in less than 20
minutes. The time will depend on the recipe
and volume of the dessert you are making.
When the mixture has thickened to your liking,
it is done. If you desire a firmer consistency,
transfer the dessert to an airtight container
and store in the freezer for two or more hours.
NOTE: Do not store frozen desserts in the
freezer bowl. Desserts will stick to the sides of
the freezer bowl and may damage the bowl.
Store only in a freezer-safe, airtight container.
ADDING INGREDIENTS
Ingredients such as chips, lollies and nuts should be
added about 5 minutes before the recipe is complete.
Once the dessert has begun to thicken, add the
ingredients through the ingredients spout. Nuts and
other ingredients should be no larger than a chocolate
chip (1.2cm in diameter).
SAFETY FEATURE
The Cuisinart ® Cool Scoops™ is equipped with a
safety feature that automatically stops the unit if the
motor overheats. This may occur if the dessert is
extremely thick, if the unit has been running for an
excessively long period of time, or if added
ingredients (nuts, etc.) are in extremely large pieces.
To reset the unit, put the On/Off switch in the OFF
position and unplug the unit. Let the unit cool off.
After a few minutes, you may turn the unit on again
and continue making the dessert.
