So I made blueberry icecream. It tastes great and very refreshing!! The only problem is that I replaced the heavy cream for silk dairy free creamer and creamer just isnt as thick as heavy cream. So to compensate for that I added like 4 tablespoons of cornstarch... but I dont know if I added it at the right time or what. So it didnt thicken up in the icecream maker so I put it in the freezer in the bowl and now its the right consistancy. I think it tastes pretty good! Not quite like icecream (considering the lack of heavy cream) but hey... close enough! I would definitely give this one a try- I just wonder if there is something else you could use to thicken it up. Ive seen people mention arrowroot and tapioca- I probably shouldve used one of those.
