Wrap it in a plastic bag to prevent freezer burn. We recommend that you
place the freezer bowls in the back of your freezer where it is coldest.
Reminder: Your freezer should be set to 0°F to ensure proper freezing
of all foods.
MAKING FROZEN DESSERTS OR DRINKS
1. Prepare recipe ingredients from pages that follow or from your own
recipe. Cuisinart recipes begin on page 4. If you use your own recipe,
be sure it yields 1 quart or less. For best results, prepare
ingredients in a container that is easy to pour from.
2. Remove the freezer bowl(s) from the freezer. (Remove plastic bag if
you have wrapped freezer bowls.) Place freezer bowls on the center of
the base.
NOTE: Bowl will begin to defrost quickly once it has been removed from
freezer. Use it immediately after removing from freezer.
3. Place mixing arm(s) in freezer bowl(s). Arm does not fit tightly. It just
rests in the center of the bowl, with the circle side facing up.
4. Place lid(s) on base. Easy-lock lid mechanism allows lid to rest on base
in one position. Set lid(s) slightly off center and turn clockwise to lock in
place.
5. Choose the one or two bowl switch position.
If you choose one bowl only, use the right side of the unit. Always select
this prior to turning on the unit.
6. Press On/Off switch. Freezer bowls will begin to turn. If you chose to
make only one batch, just the right bowl will begin to turn.
7. Immediately pour ingredients through ingredient spout(s).
8. Frozen desserts or drinks will be done in 20-30 minutes. The time
will depend on the recipe, and the volume of the dessert or drink you are
making. When the mixture has thickened to your liking, it is done. If you
desire a firmer consistency, transfer the dessert or drink to an airtight
container and store in the freezer for two or more hours.
NOTE: Do not store frozen desserts or drinks in the freezer bowl.
Desserts and drinks will stick to the side of the freezer bowl and
may damage the bowl. Store only in a plastic airtight container.
ADDING INGREDIENTS
Ingredients such as chips and nuts should be added about 5 minutes before
the recipe is complete. Once the dessert or drink has begun to thicken, add
the ingredients through the ingredient spout. Nuts and other ingredients
should be no larger than a chocolate chip.
SAFETY FEATURE
The Cuisinart ® Flavor Duo™ is equipped with a safety feature that automati-
cally stops the unit if the motor overheats. This may occur if the dessert or
drink is extremely thick, if the unit has been running for an excessively long
period of time, or if added ingredients (nuts, etc.) are in extremely large
pieces. To reset the unit, put the ON/OFF switch in the OFF position. Let the
unit cool off. After a few minutes, you may turn the unit on again and contin-
ue making the dessert or drink.
