Once in awhile we “all scream for ice cream”.  There are a few (very few) on the market and some only a little better than others.  What if you could make your own with ingredients you usually have around and find it tastes great?

INGREDIENTS

2 cups Heavy Whipping Cream

1/4 cup Almond milk or water

2 tablespoons Vanilla Exctract

1/2 cup Lankanto Monk Fruit sweetener

 

Directions

Mix all ingredients together thoroughly

Place in container with a lid (I use a loaf pan type plastic contaier)

Place in freezer for 5 hours

Stir about once an hour

Keep any leftovers in the freezer.  They may be quite hard.  Let set out a bit before eating.

Serves 4

Variation

You can also do this recipe by whipping the cream first.  This does 5 things:

  1. It doubles the volume
  2. It tastes a little more like frozen custard
  3. it takes 6 hours to be ready instead of five
  4. By doubling the volume you get more 1/2 cup servings, thereby reducing the carbs per serving
  5. It does not need to be stirred as often.

I also leave out the almond milk or water in this variation.
