How to Make Decadent Low Carb Reduced Fat Vanilla Ice Cream

  1. In a blender, combine 2 cups heavy cream, 1 cup half-and-half, 1/2 cup Splenda (or your preferred sugar substitute), and 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract. Blend until completely smooth and well incorporated.
  2. Churn the mixture in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. This typically takes 20-25 minutes.
  3. Once churned, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to allow it to firm up completely.
  4. Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly. Alternatively, microwave in 10-second intervals until desired consistency is reached.
  5. For extra indulgence, swirl in 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter or your favorite fresh berries after churning but before freezing.
  6. Enjoy your delicious, healthy ice cream!
