Ingredients

2 1/2 cups Heavy Cream
1/2 cup Almond Milk
5 Egg Yolks
1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 tsp Strawbery Extract optional
1/4 tsp Salt
1 oz Vodka optional
1/2 cup Powdered Erythritol
40 drops Liquid Stevia
1 pound Fresh Strawberries

Instructions

Step 1 - Prep the Strawberries

Dice the strawberries and add to a bowl with 1/4 cup of erythritol. Cover and place in refrigerator.

Step 1 - Make a Custard

In a medium sauce pan, heat the almond milk and 1/2 a cup of heavy cream until just below boiling.
While the milk is heating, separate the egg yolks from the whites and place in a bowl. Mix with the remaining Erythritol and the salt.
Remove the milk from the heat, and add a small amount to the egg yolks to slowly raise the temperature and temper the eggs. Pour very slowly so as not to scramble the eggs!
Once the eggs are tempered, combine it with the milk in the pot and return it to the heat. Cook for 5-10 minutes until the mixture thickens into a custard - it will coat the back of a spoon.
Optionally, strain the custard in a sieve to remove any lumps. Stir in the vanilla extract, The stevia, and optionally the strawberry extract. Cover and place in refrigerator to cool.

Step 3 - Make the Ice Cream Base

Add the remaining whipped cream to a large bowl, and beat with a hand mixer until it reaches soft peaks.
Take about 2/3 of the strawberries and add to a blender. Blend on high until a puree forms.
Gently fold the strawberry puree and the custard into the whipped cream until uniform in color. Add the remaining strawberries. Taste for sweetness and adjust according to your taste.
Cover and refrigerate for four hours up to overnight.

Step 4 - Freeze the Ice Cream

If not using an ice cream maker, put the mixture into a freezer, and stir every 1/2 hour until frozen
If using an ice cream maker follow your device's instructions for freezing and hardening.
