Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup erythritol sweetener
- 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup sugar-free mini marshmallows
- 0.5 cup unsalted peanuts
- 0.5 cup sugar-free dark chocolate chips
Instructions
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the unsweetened cocoa powder, erythritol sweetener, and a splash of almond milk. Stir continuously until the sweetener is dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
Gradually add the remaining almond milk and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Do not let it boil.
Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and the cooled chocolate mixture until well combined and slightly thickened.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, typically about 20-25 minutes, until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
During the last few minutes of churning, add the sugar-free mini marshmallows, unsalted peanuts, and sugar-free dark chocolate chips, allowing them to mix evenly into the ice cream.
Transfer the churned ice cream into a lidded container and smooth the top with a spatula.
Cover the ice cream with a piece of parchment paper to prevent ice crystals from forming and securely fit the lid onto the container.
Freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm before serving.
Scoop and enjoy your sugar-free rocky road ice cream, full of rich flavors and delightful textures!
