No-Churn Coffee Chip Keto Ice Cream
Description
The recipe starts by dissolving instant coffee granules in heated heavy cream, which is then cooled before mixing. The remaining heavy cream is blended with mascarpone cheese, allulose sweetener, and vanilla extract to create a smooth base. The coffee cream is added along with xanthan gum to stabilize the mixture, followed by folding in chopped dark chocolate pieces to add texture.
This mixture is poured into a freezer-safe container and chilled for several hours until firm enough to scoop like traditional ice cream. The resulting dessert has a creamy mouthfeel, balanced bittersweet coffee flavor, and intermittent crunchy chocolate chips offering contrast.
It is served as a frozen treat ideal for those following a keto diet or looking for a homemade coffee-flavored dessert without complicated equipment. The presence of xanthan gum helps maintain a smooth texture despite the lack of churning.
Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy cream divided
- 8 ounces mascarpone cheese
- ¾ cup allulose confectioners
- 2 ounces dark chocolate chopped, sugar-free
- 2 tablespoons instant coffee
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon xanthan gum
Instructions
- Heat up ¼ cup of the heavy cream in the microwave, then pour the instant coffee over the top. Whisk in the coffee granules until dissolved, then set aside to cool.
- Add the remaining heavy cream, mascarpone cheese, allulose and vanilla into the bowl of a food processor. Blend until well combined.
- Pour in the cooled coffee and heavy cream mixture and continue blending. Sprinkle the xanthan gum over the top and blend.
- Add in the chopped chocolate and pulse briefly, then remove the blade and mix using a silicone spoon.
- Poor the mixture into a freezer safe glass container, cover and allow to chill in the freezer for at least 2-3 hours or until it reaches the consistency of ice cream.
