Hi Lisa...what's protein ice cream?

Hey Kimi.. it's ice cream made with milk, protein powder and other ingredients.  There are lots of great recipes out there.  '

eggface has a lot of them that are really good.  My favorite so far is the chocolate brownie one,but I make my own SF brownies to go in it instead of trying to find sf ones in the store.

OMG.....now I want to make ice cream!!! LOL What is your recipe for the Chocolate Brownie one...I guess I'm not very creative with foods. LOL Do you have an ice cream maker?

I just got the ice cream maker and it's probably the single best investment I've made, besides the surgery and my blender.

Chocolate brownies:

¾ C cocoa

2 eggs

1 1/3 C flour

½ tsp baking soda

2/3 C vegetable oil

1 tsp vanilla

 ½ C boiling water

 ¼ tsp salt

2 C diabetisweet  

1)     Stir cocoa and baking soda in mixing bowl.  (2) Blend in 1/3 cup vegetable oil.  (3) Add boiling water; stir until mixture thickens.  (4) Stir in diabetisweet, eggs and remaining 1/3 cup vegetable oil; stir until smooth.  (5) Add flour, vanilla and salt, blend completely.  (6) Pour into lightly greased 9 x 13 pan.  Bake at 350 for 30 minutes
