Homemade Ice Cream


So, yesterday was my 36th birthday and I'd asked for a homemade ice cream maker (before I decided to do this diet). So, I got what I wanted, but the diet...

I looked online for low carb ice cream recipes and found the recipe below. I'm going to wait until after Induction to try it, I think. Then, I'll post a review. Gives me something to look forward to:

Vanilla Ice Cream Recipe

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cup heavy cream
1 cup half-and-half
1 cup Splenda
1/2 cup ice cold water
1 tsp vanilla
dash salt

Mix all thoroughly and put it into your ice cream maker. Turn on and watch for about 25 minutes - it should slow to a halt when it's thick enough.

*If you use Splenda in packets, be sure to adjust accordingly! The packets are a different level of sweetness compared to normal bulk Splenda.
