I adapted this recipe from Chef #34146's Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream (For Electric Ice Cream Machine) (with permission) making it lower in fat, carbs, and calories. Her recipe is so divine and I found myself making it so much that I just had to do something so we could enjoy it without the guilt. Dee has expressed appreciation for us posting this, and said she also makes it this way sometimes. :) Ingredients:
8 ounces neufchatel cheese (or 1/3 reduced fat cream cheese) |
1/2 cup splenda sugar substitute |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla |
8 large fresh strawberries |
1 cup fat-free half-and-half |
Directions:
1. Place all ingredients (except 4 strawberries) into a blender and mix well. Pour into ice cream machine and allow to churn for 20 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, chop remaining strawberries into small pieces. Add to machine and continue churning for an additional 5 minutes.
3. Serve as soft-serve or place into a plastic container, cover and freeze for later (if it lasts that long). :).
