Slice open your vanilla bean, scrape out seeds and add to the mixture, if using vanilla bean.
Turn the machine on; pour the mixture into freezer bowl, and let mix until thickened, about 20 to 25 minutes. The ice cream will have a soft, creamy texture.

If a firmer consistency is desired, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and place in freezer for 3 or more hours.
