Ingredients (Makes 4 servings)
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any low-carb milk)
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup powdered erythritol (or other keto-friendly sweetener, adjust to taste)
- 1/4 cup sugar-free peanut butter (natural, creamy)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
1. Blend the Ingredients:
- In a blender, combine heavy cream, almond milk, cocoa powder, erythritol, peanut butter, vanilla extract, and salt.
- Blend until smooth and well-mixed. Taste and adjust the sweetness if needed.
2. Chill the Mixture:
- Pour the mixture into a bowl or container and chill in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours. This helps it freeze better in the next step.
3. Make the Ice Cream:
- If Using an Ice Cream Maker: Pour the chilled mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes until thick and creamy.
- If Not Using an Ice Cream Maker: Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and freeze. Stir every 30 minutes for 2-3 hours to break up any ice crystals, until the ice cream reaches a creamy texture.
4. Serve:
- Once the ice cream is fully frozen, scoop it into bowls and serve. For extra flavor, drizzle with a small amount of melted sugar-free chocolate or a sprinkle of crushed nuts if desired.
Tips:
- For Extra Creaminess: Add a tablespoon of MCT oil or vodka to keep the ice cream softer in the freezer.
- Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week. Allow the ice cream to soften at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before scooping.
