Vanilla Bean Chocolate Ice Cream
The day has finally come! I finally got all the ingredients I needed to make my first batch of homemade paleo ice cream! The taste is a bit different from store bought ice creams. I am not used to the taste of stevia just yet and I put in a lot of cacao powder so it was slightly bitter. Other than that, I have no complaints! The recipe I used was the Bulletproof 'Get Some' Ice Cream with a few slight changes.
Ingredients:
4 whole eggs
4 yolks
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 vanilla bean (I used vanilla bean paste)
10 drops apple cider vinegar
7 tbsp butter
10.5 tbsp coconut oil
1.5 tbsp stevia
1/2 cup water
1/4 to 1/2 cup cacao powder (I used 1/2 cup so it was a tad bitter)
- Blend all the ingredients apart from the water in a blender until the mix is smooth and creamy.
- Add the water to the mix and blend.
- Pour the mix in the ice cream maker as per the manufacturer's guide.
