In a large mixing bowl, combine heavy cream, almond milk, protein powder, erythritol, and vanilla extract. Use an electric mixer to beat the mixture on high speed until it becomes thick and creamy.
In a separate bowl, whisk together unsweetened cocoa powder and melted coconut oil until fully combined.
Gradually add the cocoa mixture to the cream mixture, folding it in gently until well incorporated.
Prepare an 8x8-inch baking dish by lining it with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Pour the ice cream mixture into the prepared dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Sprinkle the top with sugar-free chocolate chips and chopped nuts if using.
Place the dish in the freezer and let it freeze for at least 4 hours or until the mixture is firm.
Once frozen, lift the mixture out of the dish by the parchment paper or foil and place it onto a cutting board.
Cut the frozen mixture into 8 bars using a sharp knife. If desired, individually wrap them in parchment paper for easy storage.
Store bars in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
