What happens if the cookie pieces are introduced when the ice cream base is too hard during fresh recreation?

Answer

The cookies will clump

When attempting to replicate the fresh texture experience, the temperature and consistency of the base relative to the inclusions are critical for achieving proper distribution. If the ice cream base has become too hard or fully set before the pre-crushed cookies are introduced, the mixture will not properly incorporate the solids. Instead of suspending evenly throughout the freezing matrix, the cold, dense cookie pieces will resist mixing and tend to gather together in localized masses or clumps within the final product, leading to uneven texture.
