3. Add mix-ins

Continue churning for an additional 10 minutes, or until well combined.

4. Freeze and Serve

The ice cream should be cold enough to enjoy right away in a soft-serve style. For a firmer texture, transfer it to an airtight, freezer-safe container and let it harden for a couple of hours.
