Tips:

• Heat-treating flour: To make sure the flour is safe to eat, you can heat it in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5 minutes, or microwave it in 30-second intervals until it reaches 165°F (74°C).
• Variations: Feel free to add other mix-ins like nuts or extra chocolate chips to the ice cream base.
