Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 0.75 cup Erythritol
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Swerve confectioners sugar substitute
- 1 tablespoon Gelatin powder
- 2 tablespoons Cold water
- 0.33 cup Sugar-free rainbow sprinkles
- 1 teaspoon Butter extract
Instructions
In a small bowl, pour 2 tablespoons of cold water and sprinkle the gelatin powder over it to bloom for about 5 minutes.
In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, erythritol, and salt. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is hot, but not boiling, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the bloomed gelatin to the hot cream mixture and stir until completely dissolved.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract, butter extract, and Swerve confectioners sugar substitute until well combined.
Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until thoroughly chilled.
Once chilled, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually about 20-25 minutes, until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
In the last five minutes of churning, add the sugar-free rainbow sprinkles to the ice cream maker.
Transfer the churned ice cream into an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to firm up before serving.
When ready to serve, scoop the ice cream into bowls and enjoy a delightful sugar-free treat!
