Ingredients

Ice Cream Base

10 Fluid Ounces Whole Milk
4 Fluid Ounces Unsweetened Almond Milk
1½ Tablespoons 100% Cocoa Powder Unsweetened
⅓ Cup Allulose Granular Sugar Substitute
¼ Teaspoon Guar Gum

Optional

1-2 Tablespoons Unsweetened Almond Milk

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Make the Ice Cream Mixture

Pour the whole milk, unsweetened almond milk, cocoa powder, allulose, and guar gum into a small blender and blend until all ingredients are fully combined. Pour the mixture into a Ninja Creami container.
Freeze on a level surface for 24 hours. Your freezer should be between 9 and -7 degrees Fahrenheit.

Process the Ice Cream

After 24 hours, remove the Ninja Creami container from the freezer. If there is a large bump in the ice cream, melt or scrape the large bump so that the top is level.
Place the Ninja Creami container into the outer bowl of the Ninja Creami and then process on "ICE CREAM."
If the ice cream is dry or crumbly looking (like sand), pour in a tablespoon or two of almond milk and then re-spin. If the ice cream looks more like little balls of ice cream, re-spin without adding liquid. You may have to respin a couple of times.

Notes

What kind of cocoa powder is used for this recipe?

Hershey’s unsweetened cocoa powder is used to make low calorie chocolate ice cream. As long as you use unsweetened cocoa powder, you can use whatever brand you want.

Why is there whole milk and almond milk in this recipe?

The whole milk helps make the ice cream creamy and thick, and the almond milk helps add volume to the recipe without adding many calories.

Can the guar gum be omitted from this recipe?

No, I would not omit the guar gum. The guar gum helps make the ice cream thick and creamy. Omitting the guar gum will provide an icier and softer textured ice cream.
