Nearly Fat-Free, Nearly Sugar-Free, Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream!! Only .3 grams fat, 10.4 grams carbs, and 6.8 grams protein -- and my kid even likes it? Am I dreaming??? :oD
Be sure to use Splenda NO calorie (not Splenda for baking) and evaporated skim milk, (not sweetened condensed milk) which would add way more calories.

Ingredients
| 2 |
eggs |
| 1/2 |
cup Splenda no calorie sweetener |
| 2 |
t sugar |
| 1 3/4 |
cup skim milk |
| 1 1/2 |
cup canned, evaporated, nonfat milk |
| 1/2 |
cup Milk, Lowfat, Fluid, 1% Milkfat |
| 2 |
tsp vanilla (minimum) |
Directions
- Blend eggs, Splenda, and sugar with an electric mixer until thick and cream-coloured
- pour in skim milk, condensed skim milk, 1% milk, and vanilla and blend
- Add any 'extras' of your choice (we did add chocolate chips and marshmallows, but didn't include those in the basic recipe).
- Freeze in hand-crank ice-cream maker churning every 2-3 minutes for about 20 minutes.
- This makes quite frosty, light ice cream with a gelato consistency. Freeze overnight for a harder ice cream. Can eliminate the egg yolks, the 2t sugar and swap 1% for more skim milk, which will reduce cal's even further but probably make the recipe even icier and lighter. Can also swap real cream for the condensed and 1%, and use real sugar, as in the original high-fat, high-carb ice cream, but I was curious to try the lowest calorie version we could make. It was delicious!! :oD
- This recipe is basic vanilla, but you can add you own flavours: peppermint extract (or crumbled candy canes) and broken chocolate wafers (delicious!), berries, coffee, maple.. etc!!
