McFlurry ice cream with Lotus cookies in Thermomix
First of all, the rise of clone recipes from famous restaurants has flooded social networks. For this reason, the McFlurry ice cream with Lotus cookies in Thermomix has positioned itself as the undisputed king of viral homemade desserts.
However, the real reason for its massive success is the brutal economic savings it represents compared to fast food chains. However, we do not sacrifice one bit of quality, since we control the purity of each ingredient.
On the other hand, the combination of the caramelized flavor of Belgian cookies with the dairy base is an unstoppable gastronomic trend. In conclusion, this dessert balances summer seasonality with the comfort of traditional pastries.
To make the base extremely airy, the absolute secret lies in the temperature of the utensils. Therefore, place the Thermomix glass, the butterfly and the cream in the freezer 10 minutes beforehand.
In addition, it is essential to constantly monitor the lid opening during the blending process. Since cream can turn into butter in a matter of seconds, visual precision replaces programmed on-screen time.

To make this delicacy at home, you will need a group of very accessible but strategically selected ingredients:
Thinking about the needs of all your guests, you can make smart substitutions very easily. For example, use cream and lactose-free condensed milk for a version suitable for intolerants.
Likewise, if you are looking for a celiac-friendly alternative, simply replace the Lotus cookies with their commercial gluten-free equivalent. However, keep the blending times identical so as not to alter the structure.
Follow these guided instructions meticulously to ensure a result identical to that of the best ice cream parlors:
Step 1: Cooling and inserting the butterfly
Make sure the glass is completely clean and dry. Place the butterfly correctly on the robot blades.
Parameters: No time / Temperature: Very cold / Speed: Manual insertion
Step 2: Emulsion of the dairy base
Add the very cold cream, condensed milk and vanilla to the glass. Ride paying maximum attention across the mouth until you see soft peaks.
Parameters: Approx. 1-2 min / Temperature: No temperature / Speed: 3.5 / Spin: Reverse not required
Step 3: Control semi-freezing
Pour the resulting cream into a flat, airtight container. Take it immediately to the freezer to stabilize the fats.
Parameters: 40 minutes / Temperature: -18°C in freezer / Speed: Absolute rest
Step 4: Assembly and commercial marbling
Place syrup at the bottom of the glass, add the semi-frozen ice cream, add the broken cookies and decorate with more syrup on top.
Parameters: Immediate / Temperature: Ambient for assembly / Speed: Manual with care

How to prevent Thermomix ice cream from breaking when whipping the cream?
The key is not to schedule time and be guided exclusively by hearing and sight. When the engine sound changes to a louder sound and you see distinct grooves through the mouth, stop the machine immediately.
What to do if the ice cream stays excessively hard in the freezer?
As it does not contain industrial additives, if it spends many hours frozen it will compact. However, this has an easy solution: chop the block, put it in the Thermomix glass and blend for a few seconds at speed 6 or Turbo to restore its silky texture.
How long does this homemade ice cream last in perfect condition?
We recommend consuming it preferably within the first 48 hours after preparation. This way, you guarantee that the dairy texture does not absorb odors from the freezer and that the cookies maintain their original crunchy touch.
Can condensed milk be replaced with regular sugar?
It is not recommended at all. Condensed milk provides already dissolved sugars and a molecular density that stops the formation of large ice crystals, something that granulated sugar would not achieve on its own in this method.
Can this ice cream be made using light cooking cream?
No, it is completely impossible. You need a minimum percentage of 35% fat so that air molecules are trapped efficiently. Otherwise, the mixture will remain liquid and will completely crystallize in the cold.
In conclusion, master the technique to prepare this delicious McFlurry ice cream with Lotus cookies in Thermomix will transform your summer gatherings into memorable and flavorful gastronomic experiences.
