Ice cream

Ingredients  

1 cup heavy cream or coconut milk
2 tablespoon sugar free powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum
1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional


## Instructions 

In a deep and wide jar, add all your ingredients and mix. Using an immersion or stick mixer, beat everything together until it thickens and soft peaks form.

Cover the jar and place it in the freezer for at least 4 hours, stirring every 30 minutes, to ensure it doesn't become too icy.

Remove from the freezer and let sit for 15 minutes, before serving.

Notes

If you want smoother ice cream, add 1 tablespoon of vodka. You won’t be able to taste it, but it will make the ice cream easier to scoop. 

TO STORE: If your ice cream is too icy once removed from the freezer, you can microwave it for 15 seconds or let it sit for 15 minutes.
 

Chocolate– Add 3 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder to the mixture. 
Cookies and cream– Replace the vanilla extract with almond extract and add 1 cup of crushed keto Oreos. 
Cookie dough– Fold through 1/4 cup of crumbled keto cookie dough. 
Strawberry– Add 1/2 cup sliced strawberries and, if desired, strawberry extract. 
Mint chocolate chip– Replace the vanilla extract with peppermint extract and fold through 1/2 cup sugar free chocolate chips.
Butter pecan– Add 1/2 teaspoon butter extract and 1/4 cup chopped pecans. 
Salted caramel– Fold through 1/4 cup of sugar free caramel syrup. 
Peanut butter cup– Drizzle peanut butter and add chopped-up keto peanut butter cups. 
TO RE-FREEZE: The ice cream will become icier if re-frozen. If you do have leftovers and need to re-freeze them, place them in a new container and store them in the freezer for up to 1 month.
