Ingredients
- 2.5 cup 625g 2% milk
- 12 oz can evaporated milk
- 2 tbsp 20g cornstarch
- 1/3 cup 70g monkfruit sweetener
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
- 4 biscoff cookies optional
Instructions
- In a saucepan, combine 2% milk (reserve a few tablespoons) and evaporated milk. Heat gently until hot, but not boiling.
- Mix the reserved milk with cornstarch to create a slurry. Add to the pot along with monk fruit sweetener, vanilla, and a pinch of salt.
- Stir continuously over medium heat until the mixture thickens and starts to bubble (about 5–7 minutes).
- Remove from heat. Cool the mixture quickly by placing the pot in a large bowl filled with ice water. Stir occasionally to prevent a skin from forming.
- Once cooled, pour the mixture into your pre-frozen ice cream maker bowl.
- Churn according to your machine’s instructions (usually around 30 minutes).
- In the final minutes of churning, add crushed Biscoff cookies if using.
- Transfer ice cream into a chilled storage container. Freeze until firm (1–2 hours).
