- To make still-frozen ice cream in freezer trays, after about 2 hours of freezing, remove tray from freezer and beat contents well. Return to freezer. Repeat the beating in about 2 hours and again in 2 more hours if crystals appear on the surface. Refreeze after each beating. Cover the tray closely each time with plastic or foil. Do not store more than 24 hours if you want a satisfactory texture.
- When partially frozen, fold in: 1/2 cup broken toasted pecan meats
