In reply to Esmerita. Awesome! So great to hear you liked it! <3 I bet the rum made it even more luxurious :)

OMG, this was superb! I had read about adding some vodka to homemade ice cream in an ice cream book I have, and I decided to add some dark rum to this. I kind of had a minor rum pouring accident into my tablespoon, so about 3 wound up in the mix. This ice cream was so luxuriously creamy 7 hours later, a little firmer 2 days later (15-20 minutes on the counter fixed that). The flavor is superb and I think the confectioner’s erythritol makes a difference in the hardness, but I could be completely wrong. Either way, this is a keeper and heavenly treat!

In reply to Cathy. Yes, if you tolerate the sugar.

In reply to elviira. Another technique we use for homemade ice cream is filling a gallon bag with ice and adding ice cream salt and then the ingredients in a smaller quart bag and shaking it until it makes the ice cream in the bag. In theory you could do the same trick with nesting bowls and stirring.

This is the best & simplest keto ice-cream recipe. I have a small churn and love how quick it is. I’ve tried other recipes where you make a custard first with lots of egg yolks. It sounded like a good idea, but just takes too long and they were actually too rich (the texture of frozen icing, which I’ll admit that yours truly has eaten in my pre-keto days). I add a pinch of instant decaf coffee to liven the chocolate flavor. I also added a tablespoon of vodka. It doesn’t seem to keep it from freezing rock hard once in the freezer, but perhaps it helps it warm and scoop faster when you pull it out.

In reply to Janet. Which cream did you use? The carb count also depends on the brand.

The receipe is delicious but I believe the net carb count is way off. For 1 serving (2 servings total) the specifications were:
5.1 net carbs
51.1 fat
13 pro

My calculations were:
9 net carbs
45 fat
5 pro
I used 2 egg yolks instead of whole eggs, this should not have affect on the net carbs, only the protein. Any thoughts??

In reply to Stephanie. Caramel vodka sounds great, never heard of that before!
