Guilt Free Homemade Ice Cream
I received a Cuisinart ice cream maker for my birthday last year and have been working with perfecting a recipe for guilt free ice cream. Here's what I came up with:
Vanilla
1 cup whole milk, chilled
1/4 cup sugar
2 cups fat-free Half & Half, chilled
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Whisk together milk and sugar until sugar is dissolved. Stir in Half & Half and vanilla. Place in refrigerator for 15 minutes or longer. When ready turn on ice cream machine. Pour mixture into freezer bowl of machine and let mix until thick, about 30-45 mins. Eat or freeze immediately.
Chocolate
1 cup of whole milk
1/4 cup sugar
8 ounces of bittersweet or semi-sweet chocolate broken into pieces
2 cups fat-free Half &Half, chilled
1 teaspoon vanilla
Heat milk. In a food processor mix sugar and chocolate until chocolate is finely chopped. Add hot milk to this and process until smooth. Transfer to a bowl and let cool. Stir in Half & Half and vanilla. Chill for at least 30 minutes. When ready turn on ice cream machine. Pour mixture into freezer bowl of machine and let mix until thick, about 30-45 mins. Eat or freeze immediately.
