Make sure the machine is turned on and running when you slowly pour the mixture into it. If it's not turned on then the mixture will stick to the sides and bottom because of being so cold and frozen.

Maybe , I know Michelle posted that she freezes hers about 12 hours or so.

I havent had any problems with my ingredients sticking to the sides and bottom.  I mix my mixture in the blender until frothy, pour it into my running cuisinart while mixture is still cold and everything turns out fine.  Is everything well blended when you are pouring it in and are you processing it for more than 25 = 30 minutes or do you not immediately pour the processed ice cream into small containers not leaving it sit in the freezer canister.  I do not let the mixture sit in the ice cream maker for no more than a minute after I turn the machine off.

I started out using my bullet but switched to my big blender because I did not think the bullet was mixing it well enough to really fluff it up.  Also, are you removing the ice cream from the cylinder immediately?  I dont get any stuck to the sides or bottom.  I use soy milk.  Maybe that makes a difference.

Elaina,
Hi,  I have been thinking about making chocolate frozen yogurt, but was not sure what to add for chocolate flavoring.  I use Fage yogurt.... did you add chocolate SF pudding and splenda?  Thanks!

To the original poster.  I was having terrible problems at first with the ice cream getting frozen like a 1/4 inch rock to the sides of my cannister.  It was suggested that maybe I had frozen my cannister too long, but the directions say to just keep it in the freezer so it is ready when you want it.  I found the secret to the frozen stuc****cream..... I bought a milk frother like Eggface uses to whip alot of air into the mixture.  It nearly doubles the amount of mixture because of the air.  And now my ice cream comes out looking just like hers... like softserve.
