Has any S Beacher tried to tweek this with a skim milk or FF milk?
The reviews have been excellent, but they are all following Atkins.


"Ziploc" Vanilla Ice Cream

1 tablespoon artificial sweetener
1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1/2 cup Heavy Cream
6 tablespoons Table Salt
3 cups Ice
1 Sandwich Sized Ziploc Bag
1 Gallon Sized Ziploc Bag

No Ice Cream Maker Needed. It
really works, trust me!!

In the sandwich sized ziploc,
combine the sugar substitute,
vanilla extract and heavy cream. Seal the
bag and shake lightly to mix ingredients.
In the gallon sized ziploc bag, add 3
cups of ice (or fill half the bag
with ice)and add 6 tablespoons of
table salt.

Place the sealed sandwich sized bag
into the gallon bag and seal the
gallon bag. Shake the entire
contents for at least 4 minutes
(shake longer for harder ice cream).
Once desired hardness has been
achieved, remove smaller baggie and
rinse throughly with cold water (if
you miss this step, you may wind up with
salty ice cream!)

Recipe makes about a 1/2 cup of ice cream.
I have doubled the recipe and it
still works well. I am also sure that
you can add additional ingredients
(cocoa powder, etc) to create different

Thats seems unbelievably easy. Someone has to try it out with a heavy cream replacement ;)

We've done that recipe with the pre-schoolers at our daycare before. It does work, as it also works in Coffee cans (putting a smaller one inside of a larger one, with the ice around the smaller one) and then the kids roll it back and forth. I have done it with lower fat milk than heavy cream, but I don't think I've ever done it with skim milk. But I'm sure it would work. Another idea is to add a packet of sugar free vanilla pudding, that would help it "thicken" a bit faster as well. (it does, I've done it). anyway.... now I'm hungry for ICE CREAM!!!! Good thing there isn't any in the house, and my lovely play hard all day at full speed son is sound asleep already... and its only 6pm!!!! (I so hope I'm not up for the day tomorrow at 3 am!!!)
