Sugar free Chocolate Ice Cream using Stevia



The Ice Cream truck hovering our development during the summer months make the kids and adults crave for some of this Sinful treats. I normally don't buy these Ice Creams at all and  I promised to make different flavored Ice Creams through out summer to enjoy and this is one such one.  We no longer use sugar  in our house hold.(even for kids - less work for my kids dentist). I have used Stevia as the sweetener in the Ice Cream recipe and my kids weren't able to find the difference because of the chocolate flavor, but for the adults this was very much pronounced. So I am going to stick on with Xylitol for the rest of my Ice Cream recipes.



Preparation Time - 10 Minutes

Cooking Time - None

Serves - 4 to 8





Ingredients



Half & Half - 1 Cup

Heavy Cream - 1 Cup

KAL Stevia - 1/2 Tsp

vanilla essence - few drops

Unsweetened Cocoa Powder - 1/4 Cup



Method



1) Place the Half & Half, Heavy Cream, Stevia, Vanilla essence and Unsweetened Cocoa powder in an Ice Cream maker and process till you get a soft serve consistency as per the manufacturer instruction.



2) Now remove this Ice Cream from the Ice Cream make and freeze over night to get a firm Ice Cream.



3) Run the outside of the container under a hot water tap and use a scoop dipped in boiling water to scoop out the Ice Cream. Enjoy.

I use Stevai too most often but sweets does require sugar for the authentic taste. I find Stevia to be little stong.
Ice cream looks super creamy and delicious.
