hi miss souffle:)...i don't think the hempseeds are necessary for the ice cream..they do add a creaminess and nutritional value, but if you wanted to try some brazil nuts or macadamia for the high fat content that would be a good sub:) lucky you coming into summer..hehe

You could try freezing the mixture in ice cube trays and then blending it in a Vitamix. I actually haven't tried making ice cream in my vitamix yet, but it looks pretty easy on the instructional video. :)
