 NOTES : The real secret to Ben & Jerry's ice cream is its consistency.  It


 is a thick and creamy ice cream developed with special equipment that keeps


 a great deal of air out of the mixture.  The less air         in the ice


 cream, the thicker the consistency.  Therefore, you may         find the


 above recipes fills your ice cream maker a little more than other ice cream


 recipes.        It's also important to get the right consistency of Heath


 bar chunks. Most of the candy bar should be crushed into crumbs, but stop


 breaking the candy when there are still several 1- and         1/2-inch


 chunks remaining. Try substituting othe ringredients for the Heath bar


 chunks, just as Ben and Jerry have. Try Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, Oreo


 cookies, Kit Kat bars, Rollo cups, M& and chunks of raw cookie dough.
