Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup Erythritol (granulated)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Dark chocolate chips (sugar-free)
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 0.75 cup Chopped almonds or your choice of nuts
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, unsweetened cocoa powder, erythritol, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined and smooth.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually for around 20-30 minutes, until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
While the ice cream is churning, prepare the chocolate coating. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the sugar-free dark chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second increments, stirring in between, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the chopped nuts over the parchment evenly.
Once the ice cream has reached the desired consistency, divide the mixture evenly into ice cream bar molds or spoon onto the prepared baking sheet in bar-like shapes and smooth out with a spatula. Insert popsicle sticks if using molds.
Place the ice cream in the freezer for about 1 hour or until fully frozen and firm.
Once the ice cream is frozen, quickly dip each bar into the melted chocolate mixture, ensuring it's fully covered. Immediately sprinkle chopped nuts on each bar before the chocolate sets.
Return the bars to the baking sheet and place them back into the freezer for another 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden.
Serve cold and enjoy your keto chocolate ice cream bars with nuts.
