Homemade ice cream?
Yes I have a little one from pennys.. it has two bowls so I freeze one at a time. My ice cream is made with 1 cup 1/2 & 1/2 . 1 cup heavy whipping cream, splenda 4 tsp. vanilla 1tsp and let it spin, I can add any fruit or ? whatever to this basic slurry !! LOL Can sub with SF syrups too, Hazelnut, pineapple, peach,
etc

Is this like the one you have? I chose this so I wouldn't have to make a huge amount for just me.

Yep.. invest in one! They are awesome. You can even add protein powder to make them protein rich too. I always use Splenda in mine... There are a slew of recipes for different protein types on Eggface's blog at : http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/2010/02/prote in-ice-cream-101.html
I have a Cuisinart model and i LOVE it!
Have fun!

Thanks! I am quite intrigued by the protein powder idea...didn't occur to me, although I vaguely remember people mentioning "protein ice cream" a long time ago. I have this bad feeling that I am going to start making it, absolutely love it, and justify eating it by saying that there's protein in it...LOL.
And thanks for the link to Eggface's recipes...love it!

It tastes just fine with artificial sweetener? I use Splenda in everything (I don't have problems with artificial sweeteners like some people do), but I don't think I've ever tried ice cream that was artificially sweetened, so I don't know if I should expect a taste difference or not.
How long does it take to make a batch of homemade ice cream?

I like it. I actually use stevia extract (NOT stevia powder or Truvia...totally different product). I think it tastes fine. I don't like to use a custard base (with eggs) because it takes too long, so I can taste the produce before freezing it
From beginning to end, it taste a little less than an hour for me. I use an immersion blender to really incorporate the cocoa powder. I've made vanilla ice cream too, but I think chocolate always turns out better. So many taste sins can be covered up with cocoa powder.
It's definitely not as good as haagen dazs or anything, but I think it tastes fine.
The actual freezing part takes about 30 mins.
