Q: QuestionCan this be used to chop nuts?

Asked 5 years ago by Kinderkook.

• A:Answer Yes. Pecans, walnuts and cashews are soft. I would probably just try a half cup at a time so that they would be chopped and not ground. Harder ones would take longer but on that kind I would just do half cup at a time also. You will know how much time and quantity by testing a few kinds.

Q: QuestionCan I chop up frozen fruit to make ice cream?

Asked 5 years ago by Brenda.

• A:Answer Yes you can. If you are using more than one kind of frozen fruit, chop them separately unless they are all of the same size and density. Lighter ones like strawberries do not require much time to chop. Heavier and more dense fruits would require more time .

Q: QuestionCan this be used to make small (1/2 cup) batches of nut butter? I'm hoping it can since it can chop nuts 1/2 cup at a time. I have tiny house/kitchen & very limited work/storage space. I have just enough room left for this handy little gem in my cubbord.

Asked 2 years ago by Spare1Rib.

• A:Answer Yes, since it has a 3 cup capacity, chops very finely, and can take liquids, it should be ideal for this. The small size is a major reason why I, also, like this machine.
