To maintain the quality of leftover frozen treats, flatten the top with a spoon or spatula before refreezing to prevent ice crystals.
If the treat becomes hard after refreezing, process it again using the same program. If it remains soft, enjoy it as is. Keep in mind that processing leftovers with mix-ins may create new flavors and textures.
