Ingredients
Ingredients: 1 tablespoon artificial sweetener1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract1/2 cup Heavy Cream6 tablespoons Table Salt3 cups Ice1 Sandwich Sized Ziploc Bag1 Gallon Sized Ziploc Bag
Directions


How To Prepare: (No Ice Cream Maker
Needed. It really works,
trust me!!)


In the sandwich sized
ziploc, combine the sugar
substitute, vanilla
extract and heavy cream.
Seal the bag and shake
lightly to mix ingredients.


In the gallon sized ziploc
bag, add 3 cups of ice (or fill
half the bag
with ice)and add 6
tablespoons of table salt.


Place the seal sandwich
sized bag into the gallon
bag and seal the
gallon bag. Shake the entire
contents for at least 4
minutes (shake longer
for harder ice cream).


Once desired hardness
has been achieved, remove
smaller baggies and
rinse throughly with cold
water (if you miss this step,
you may wind up with
salty ice cream!)


Recipe makes about a 1/2
cup of ice cream.


I have doubled the recipe
and it still works well. I am
also sure that
you can add additional
ingredients (cocoa powder,
etc) to create different
flavors of ice cream. Lastly
for our friends and relatives
who aren't
on low carb diets, they can
use milk and regular sugar
rather than the
cream and sugar
substitute.

    I grew impatient and stopped after 5-6 minutes but still enjoyed a soupier version of ice cream. I used cocoa powder as well in mine and added some almond milk just to make a bit more in serving size without adding to much extra to it. Good single serve as opposed to my ice cream maker time! - 8/11/14

    not getting how it has that many carbs? my heavy cream says 0 carbs..you dont count carbs in the sweetener..vanilla has none...so i'm thinking MAYBE 1 or 2 at the most? - 1/12/17
