Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer to prevent ice crystals from forming. To reheat, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping, or place it in the microwave for 10-15 seconds for easier serving. This will help restore its creamy consistency without melting it too much.
