- Don't overcook the fruit: Cook the fruit just until it is softened and still holds its shape.
- Let the ice cream base cool completely: This will help prevent the ice cream from becoming icy.
- Churn the ice cream according to the manufacturer's instructions: Over-churning can make the ice cream tough.
- Serve the ice cream immediately or store it in the freezer for later: If you are storing the ice cream, let it soften for a few minutes before serving.
