Chocolate is certainly one of the most appetizing flavors in the world.

As such, we couldn’t resit bringing you our simple keto ice cream that can be made with only 5 ingredients !

However, to make sure everyone can get a chance to enjoy this deliciousness, we’ve gone ahead and created instructions for both a no churn keto chocolate ice cream and a keto chocolate ice cream recipe using an ice cream maker for a very very creamy version of this recipe.

 

How to make no churn keto chocolate ice cream

This version of the recipe is recommended if you do not own an ice cream maker but still want the deliciously flavorful finished product regardless.

 

First you will, gather all your ingredients in one place. You will need to separate the eggs and pour the whites in a bowl to beat and the yolks in another.

 

Next, you will beat egg whites until stiff.

 

Then in the other container, beat the egg yolks with the natural erythritol powdered sweetener and xanthan gum until they are soft and fluffy.

 

Proceed to add the cocoa powder to the mixture of yolks and sweetener. Finally, carefully add the egg whites to the yolk mixture.

 

Separate the chocolate drops in two equal portions. Melt the chocolate drops in the microwave; let them rest for 5 seconds, retire them and beat with a small spoon. Repeat this procedure until the chocolate melts.

 

 

Add the melted chocolate to the mixture and beat well. Beat the cream in a large bowl until it is frothy. Then, add the cream mixture to the egg mixture. Add the rest of the chocolate drops.

If you do not have an ice cream machine, you can follow the next procedure

    1. Put the bowl with the ice cream mixture into the freezer
    2. Thoroughly stir the mixture every half hour, until it reaches the desired consistency.
    3. This process can take up to 2 hours.
    4. You should use a spatula to make sure to scrape the inside of the bowl very well while stirring the mixture.

To serve, if the ice cream is very frozen, let it stand at room temperature for 15 minutes before serving.

When serving garnish using mint leaves and chocolate.

How to make keto chocolate ice cream with an ice cream maker

This version of the recipe is recommended if you do own an ice cream maker. This version is also easier.

You should follow the same exact steps above until the final step.

If you have an ice cream machine, follow the procedure provided by the ice maker.

In my particular case I must previously introduce the internal bowl of the machine in the freezer throughout the night. If your machine has a built-in compressor, it is not necessary.

The bowl and all the implements for its use are installed, like the paddles that constantly stir the ice cream mixture.

Add the mixture and allow the machine to perform the process to obtain the ice cream. This can take around 20 minutes to half an hour, for obtaining a soft and creamy ice cream.

If you’re looking for a great ice cream machine, get this one from Cuisinart on Amazon.

 

The finished product should look like this:

If you want a firmer texture you should take it to the refrigerator for about two hours, before serving.

That’s it. You’ve made the easiest, most tasty ice cream you can enjoy guilt free or any low carb or keto eating plan! And, if you’re looking for more low carb ice cream ideas, then try out this creamy keto vanilla ice cream recipe as well or my yummy mason jar chocolate ice cream.
