What about the recipes for ice cream?  For one cup?  Does it come with a manual?   

 

I can imagine making Philadelphia style ice cream...but what about 7 or 8 eggs or whatever it was.  I can no longer remember.  I've been making ice cream with cornstarch for so long now.  I could use one of those little thingies. 


I don’t have this thing but I do have the Ninja Creami and regularly scale ice cream recipes down to one pint. Most work just fine but anything that needs to be held at a simmer or thereabouts for more than a couple of min can end up with too much evaporation because the surface area to volume ratio tends to get too high, compared to a bigger batch.  That’s been the case in the 1 qt saucier I use. That would be something to watch for.
