    -------- ------------ --------------------
    2 Cups Skim Milk
    1/4 Cup Cocoa Powder
    2 Ounces Unsweetened Chocolate -- Chopped
    2 Egg Beaters® 99% Egg Substitute
    1 Can Sweetened Condensed Milk -- Lowfat

    Bring the milk to a simmer in a heavy medium saucepan. Whisk in the cocoa and bring the milk back to a simmer. Simmer for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat and add the chocolate. Stir until melted.
    Slowly beat the warm milk and the chocolate into the eggs in a bowl. Return the whole mixture to the pan set over low heat. Stir constantly with a whisk or wooden spoon until the custard thickens slightly. Be careful not to let the mixture boil or the eggs will scramble. Remove from the heat and pour
    the hot chocolate custard through a strainer into a large, clean bowl. Stir in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla. Cover and refrigerate until cold or overnite.

    Next day -

    Stir the chilled custard then freeze in 1 or 2 batches in your ice cream machine according to the instructions for the machine. When finished, the ice cream will be soft but ready to eat. For firmer ice cream, transfer to a freezer safe container and freeze at least 2 hours.

  • Gosh, thanks! This recipe sounds so good. I'm looking for new WW dessert recipes. I'm going to try this one now!
  • Ice cream maker help!
    I recently bought an ice cream maker...WHAT WAS I THINKING??!!! I was looking in the owners manual and I noticed that every recipe in there is all high fat and tons of sugar. Is there a way to use your ice cream maker but make it low in points??? I'd hate for this thing to go to waste. :-(
    Thanks,
    Lexie
  • You can make sorbets with splenda. A low fat cooking show on food network did that (it's some diet makeover show?). They basically purreed strawberries, mixed in splenda, and put in the ice cream maker.

    I've also made homemade ice cream mix using the full egg/cream/sugar recipe that came with my mixer. I think you can substitute egg beaters for the eggs (1-2 points for the recipe?), use whole milk instead of cream, and lf or ff milk instead of whole milk. For sugar, you can use splenda measure for measure. If you use powdered bakers chocolate, you'll get a good flavor with limited fat. You'd need to add more splenda to counteract it's unsweetened taste, however.

    I'd guess that making those substitutions would put 1 quart of homemade ice cream at about 8pts or so? If you added fresh strawberries, papaya, or mango you could make a nice fruity ice cream. Coffee is 0 points, if you like it. You could also add toasted wheat germ to the ice cream when you serve it to get some extra fiber in which can lower the points as well.

  • How many pts for homemade ice cream??
    My son got an ice cream maker for his birthday. I couldn't imagine following the recipes exactly - whole milk, heavy cream etc.

    We have been making the ice "cream" with 2% milk and will switch to skim as soon as the 2% milk runs out.

    How many pts do you suppose for half a cup of the following recipe, keeping in mind that the ice cream maker adds air...

    3 cups 2% milk and 3/4 cup sugar

    or

    3 cups skim milk and 3/4 cup sugar.

    Thanks for any help you can give!!
  • 3 cups skim milk = 263 calories
    3/4 cup sugar = 681
    Total = 944

    I dont know how many cups that recipe should make, but say it makes 4 cups of icecream then you'd be getting 236 calories per cup serve or 118 per half cup serve. I dont know how you guys convert things to points, but i hope that helps a little!
