prefreezing the nuts, dried fruit and marshmallows prior to adding them
to the chilled ice cream custard in the maker is the way to go. I'll
phrase that differently...chill the ice cream custard in one bowl and in
another bowl freeze any additives prior to combining with said custard.
In fact adding after the ice cream is more than half set would allow the
mixtures to mix and the nuts and stuff not to sink to the bottom.
