Notes
Can be stored in the freezer for 1 month, but is best enjoyed on the same day.
If the ice cream is left in the freezer for too long, it becomes very hard and difficult to scoop. To enjoy it in the days following preparation, it is recommended to take it out of the freezer at least 1 hour before serving.
