Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- ⅓ cup erythritol (or your favorite keto sweetener)
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup crushed almonds
- ½ cup sugar-free chocolate chips (for dipping, optional)
- 1 tbsp coconut oil (if dipping in chocolate)
Instructions
- Mix the Base: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together heavy cream, almond milk, erythritol, and cocoa powder until smooth and well combined.
- Add Flavor: Stir in vanilla extract and crushed almonds for a nutty crunch.
- Pour and Freeze: Pour the mixture into ice cream bar molds and insert sticks. Freeze for at least 4-6 hours or until completely set.
- Optional Chocolate Dip: Melt sugar-free chocolate chips with coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Dip the frozen bars into the chocolate mixture and place them on parchment paper. Freeze again for 20 minutes to harden the chocolate shell.
- Serve and Enjoy! Remove from molds and enjoy your homemade keto ice cream bars.
Notes
- Variations: Swap almonds for pecans or walnuts. For a dairy-free version, use full-fat coconut milk instead of heavy cream.
- Tips: Use silicone molds for easy removal. Let bars sit at room temperature for 2-3 minutes before eating for a creamier texture.
- Allergy Info: Contains nuts and dairy. Substitute almond milk with oat milk if needed.
- Adjustments: Add more sweetener for a sweeter taste, or reduce cocoa for a milder chocolate flavor.
