<human>:  How do I make my own ice cream?
<bot>: To make your own ice cream, you will need some basic ingredients such as milk, cream, sugar and/or a sweetener of your choice, as well as flavoring such as fruit, nuts, chocolate, etc. You will also need an ice cream maker and a container to store the finished product in the freezer. Start by combining the milk, cream and sweetener in your ice cream maker, then add the flavoring of your choice. Allow the ice cream to mix for about 20 minutes. Before removing it from the ice cream maker, test the texture and consistency to be sure it is to your liking. Place the ice cream in a container, and store in the freezer until you are ready to enjoy.
