Help - recipes for kitchenaide ice cream maker?
I got the kitchenaide ice cream attachment as a gift and wanted to try it out this week. Does anyone have good reliable recipes? Are the ones in the book any good? Thanks so much!

I have a Cuisinart maker, but those two makers use the same type of technology (super cold bowl, mix until frozen). Here's my frozen treats tag:

I have a cuisinart, so not sure about the KA attachment, but I need to freeze the bowl overnight. My favorite icecream to make is mint chocolate chip:
2 cups heavy cream
2 cups milk
1 cup sugar
dash of salt
teaspoon vanilla extract
1.5 teaspoons mint extract
green food coloring (about 3 - 4 drops)
1 cup mini chocolate chips
Mix all ingredients except for chocolate chips in a mixing bowl. Turn on icecream maker and add mixture. Let churn for 10 - 15 minutes. Add chocolate chips, a bit at a time and let church for 5 -10 more minutes. Transfer icecream to a tupperware (or other bowl), cover and freeze atleast 5 hours.
The key is using whole milk and heavy cream. Not very figure friendly, but I have found using less fat milk/cream causes the icecream to become a rock solid block and doesn't have the right consistency.
Enjoy!
