If you put you whole frozen berries in your processor first and chop with out the cottage cheese until they are broken up, then add the cheese you won’t have big berries to deal with.

[@peppermintpsaki1157]

I used to professionally bake. I will share a secret with you on how to maximize berry flavor without having to reduce it for hours on the stove or without using fake extracts: Get some freeze dried berries and pulverize them into powder in the blender. Just make sure the blender is super dry and clean. It’ll punch up the berry flavor like you wouldn’t believe, for less volume and no added moisture ☝️😬

[@SamsungGalaxy-nm5qt]

​@labab1048 I'm guessing it's because you're stressing about the sugar in the banana. To the best of my understanding, when the sugar appears naturally in a whole fruit, it's counter-acted (or something) by the fiber. Maybe if you're diabetic the sugar would matter but I'm not (just like most people) so IDC. I found it funny that you care.

Use a cup cake baking tray - line it with Paper cup cakes, or use reusable cupcakes moulds usually silicone based, they make great portion sizes. It will freeze quicker and in turn defrost much quicker as well.

Silicone, yes. But I would avoid paper. If you need to stir because of ice crystals, the paper could fray into the dessert.

[@beth8678]

Pro tip! Only use salted cottage cheese for flavors like cheesecake and pb flavors, otherwise I think you’ll find your ice cream too salty. I only use salted cottage cheese for those flavors. Otherwise, I buy salt free or no added salt. So the end product really taste more like ice cream. Regardless of what flavor you choose it is gonna have a cheesy flavor. Freeze cottage cheese in small scoops on a tray for an hour so they’re about the size of an ice cube, that way you can take a handful throw it in your blender with and a little liquid, i usually you’d heavy cream but I’ve used water too , add sweeteners and stir ins and change the flavor to your liking every day! There was a lot of trial and error with these recipes and I found these tips really helped.

[@marienunuvyerbiznez697]

Everyday in my hubbies lunch I mix half a cup of cottage cheese with half a cup of yogurt. Stir it well, then I add a cup of frozen blueberries. It freezes immediately as you are stirring it.

One tip to get rid of the savory flavor (at least when you go for something fruity), add a splash of OJ or a squeeze of lemon juice. Sourness neutralizes salt

[@carolinevidemark8564]

When I use cottage cheese for desserts, I use the chunky sort, and I discart the brine, as that's where most of the salt and some of the tartness is. How, you may ask; I pour the cheese into a sieve and let tapwater run through, turn the cheese a couple of times, carefully, of course. I just flip it, or use a rubber spatula. Best regards from Denmark :-)

[@MerrrryBeth]

Thank you!❤

[@luminousmoon86]

Just a tip. I've heard a lot of people say it wasn't sweet enough or tasted salty or it tasted fine when they mixed it up, but they didn't like it when it was frozen. This probably means you need to add more sweetener. Because of the way our tastebuds work, things that are frozen taste less sweet. If you've ever had a spoonful of melted commercially prepared ice cream, you might have noticed that it tastes almost loathsomely sweet. That's because they sweeten it knowing that once the product is frozen, people will be able to taste less of the sugar. So when you mix it up you should add enough sweetener that the mixture tastes slightly too sweet. When it's frozen it'll be perfect.

[@SilenceInTheBliss]

Thank you!

I believe you but if you're talking about things like pecan pie... it tastes much sweeter cold than hot.

[@HighfalutinLowCarb]

Great idea!!

[@maidenminnesota1]

Fun fact: Allulose will keep any keto ice cream from freezing into concrete. So will BochaSweet, but you should only use half the amount necessary, and use a different sweetener for the other half because it may not freeze enough, either. For example, recipe calls for 1 cup sugar, use 1/2 cup allulose, 1/2 cup erythritol.

[@toninj71]

That's good to know! Thank you. I only use bocha sweet but I usually temper an egg yolk it seems to help keep my ice cream firm and creamy and if I don't use eggs I'll add agar agar because I can't tolerate most of the other sugars. But your explanation explains why I was having difficulties with my keto ice cream before adding in the egg yolk /agar agar. Thank you again.

[@SonjaM1988]

I followed low carb loves video and mine froze into concrete. It was still good but annoying they didn’t address this issue

[@photina78]

Interesting! Splenda makes a blend of stevia, allulose, and erythritol called Magic Baker. It tastes just like sugar to me, and it doesn't have anything else added to it.

Wes, I don’t know if you will see this, since I am so far behind the times, and maybe someone has already discovered and reported this, but, I made the chocolate version and put it in a popsicle mold. What resulted was the closest thing to a commercial fudgsicle that I have found. Usually when you freeze keto ice cream or juice it freezes rock hard, and you never get that texture that you get when you bite into a fudgesicle or a popsicle, for that matter-that icy, grainy, texture, whatever it is, that is so magical. This does that. A dream come true. LOL

Thank you for stating how big your carton of cottage cheese is. I have seen a couple recipes for cottage cheese ice cream, but they just say "use a carton of cottage cheese". The difficulty is that my store sells cartons of cottage cheese in 4oz, 8oz, 16oz, and 32 oz sizes. Update: I got a 16oz pkg of cottage cheese; blended it with the cocoa powder, monk fruit, and vanilla similar to what quantities you used. I then blended in a heaping tablespoon of ChocZero Raspberry jam. I divided the mixture into four smaller containers and stirred them after 1 hour. The jam seems to keep the "ice cream" from turning into an icy brick and I love the taste of chocolate and raspberry. I think next time I'll try some keto orange marmalade. Thanks for the video.

[@SusynStecchi]

I made mine with sugar free Dutch process dark cocoa powder from Ghirardelli, with some no sugar added crunchy peanut butter and lots of cooked bacon bits ... OMG, spoon goood!

[@elizabethmiller7884]

Where do you buy the cocoa powder

[@mechanic6682]

I bought a 24oz bag of organic Cacao powder at Costco for 6.99 yesterday. Sometimes they also have Ghirardelli cocoa powder. They are virtually identical. Both are sugarfree.

[@evastavrou4928]

Drain Greek yougurt over night in draining bag - make sugar free jello cold unsettled and mix with drained yougurt -use blender - settle in fridge - so nice pudding .

[@maps630]

When I have made cottage cheese, chocolate mousse, I find the creamiest texture comes from the food processor like you used. The stick blender didn’t create that nice smooth texture for me. Thank you for the new recipe, I’m definitely going to try this.

[@toninj71]

Yeah that's the video I followed she used a stick blender it came out awful . But now seeing it made this way has convinced me to give it another try.

[@francinemarshall9869]

What about monkfruit? & how much?

[@Foulmouthedcrafts]

I have been so skeptical of this recipe, but now I have to try it.

[@cherylburge8794]

Just wanted to say “thank you”, Wes! I enjoy seeing you test different recipes and making comments about personal preferences. But mostly I want to let you know how grateful I am that you have introduced me to some new channels and websites for others that are creating these recipes. I have been checking many of them out for the first time and have found a lot of inspiration. I just wanna hug your neck!

[@karenwalkersfilthymartini6587]

The toroni type sugar free syrups totally work in the heavy cream keto ice cream. I have a few different flavors (snickerdoodle, churro, salted caramel) all are great!

[@sandrainontario6710]

How much do you add?

[@ggordon2903]

Just joined your monthly as I owe way more than I could ever repay for all your videos that I have been watching and enjoying since about 2018 since starting Low Carb/Keto. You make cooking so much fun and ENTERTAINING. Thank you for all you do for these online communities. We are all blessed because of it. I can't wait to try this ice cream.

[@RosieGrace2023]

I used stevia and peanut butter. To me it was so good! I ate half the first day and half the second day. The second day it tasted like peanut butter cheesecake!!! I felt it helpful to keep tasting as I went along to determine the right amount of sweetness for me. I would love to know who the first person was to figure this out and what made them want to try it….anyone know?

[@TommyGirl-lk8ky]

You can also cook cottage cheese in a sauce pan until it melts to a sauce. Add cheddar cheese powder (not the chemical stuff). Ladle over broccoli or use in a keto casserole base.

[@HighfalutinLowCarb]

Wow! Great idea!!

[@tanipapenhausen4251]

I did not like it frozen. I was actually going to throw it out and had it sitting on the counter. I gave it a taste before I was headed to the trash, but just chilled, it was delicious! I added a cookie crust in ramekins, my cottage cheese mouse, and topped with whipped cream. It turned into a really nice dessert!

[@Lucinda_Jackson]

Sounds perfect! I'm not a big ice cream person. I used to have it about twice a year, but I just realized I've only had ice cream once since summer of 2019 and that was sometime in summer of 2020!

[@patriciavavra7375]

I did the same thing. It was headed for the trash when I decided to leave it on the countertop to see how it was. Not delicious, but certainly edible. I left it out for about 40 minutes to be able to spoon it out.

[@luminousmoon86]

The reason for this was probably not enough sweetener. When things are frozen, they taste less sweet. That's why if you've ever eaten melted commercial ice cream it probably tasted too sweet. They add more sugar, knowing that most people won't be able to taste it when frozen. If you tried this again, add sweetener until the mixture tastes a little too sweet at room temp. Then freeze.

[@franciscaguest7551]

I wished I would have waited before I threw mines out. I didn't like it frozen and tossed it.

[@janstetler9888]

I love it none frozen. Like a mousse!

[@cjjulian42]

I'd use chocolate stevia drops in addition to the allulose for the chocolate. For the berry one, you CAN thaw the berries so you can chop them up so you don't get the single giant whole strawberry. Thank you, Wes. I'm definitely going to try these. I might even try the one you suggested with the PB2 powder.

[@anitahaviland3036]

You've made my day, or rather evening!!!! My husband and I are on a keto diet, and it's done well by us, very well! My husband will be thriller with the chocolate ice cream and so will our brother-in-law! Wow!

[@shainareynolds3825]

Holy crap, I tried this-made 1/2 the allulose recipe and added 2 tablespoons of PB fit powder. After it was all whizzed up I layered it with no sugar added strawberry jam and a few peanuts and froze it overnight in my ninja Creami pint. I spun it once on ice cream and it was truly creamy and tasted like peanut butter and jelly.

[@lpcookie1]

You had the best reaction to the flavour test I've seen in a while😂. I just heard of this cottage cheese ice cream yesterday on the radio, and here you are making it😃 I thought it was made with dry curd, so I learned something there. Thanks again for sharing.❤

[@sylviaholtzhausen6439]

I'm definitely going to try this with my homemade cottage cheese. Then I just won't add any salt. I'd use the cocoa and sweeten with frozen ripe banana. And a touch of Stevie if necessary. Will let you know how it turns out.

[@betha8761]

Thank you! When I made the chocolate version I also used Allulose but needed to add a bit more sweetness so I did use a touch of the Torani sugar free syrup. It’s was excellent! Mine had some tang to it. Some say it taste like cheesecake but mine tastes like frozen yogurt. Which is just fine by me. All good! 😊

[@girlnextdoorgrooming]

For some reason my taste buds perceive sugar free flavorings as bitter.

[@ginadonza3549]

I couldn’t take the tang of cottage cheese and I used Good Culture.

[@kaliissouledout4jesus928]

I just made some! Yumm. I was on keto for a year and a few months. lost weight and sickness, felt the best in my life. Went on a cruise and totally fell off! Weight gain and sickness back. Sigh 😔 So here we go again. It’s gotta be a way of life. I’m still hopeful. ☀️ I made mine with cottage cheese, pineapple, strawberries, a lil frozen banana, vanilla extract and a lil allulose.. Wow! I didn’t even wait. I ate as a milkshake lol. Awesomeness! I got used to the twang of the cottage cheese taste. My new go to! Thank you.

[@amartyn4850]

Back in the 70s my mom would make Cheesecake with Cottage Cheese. It was the go to diet option back then as well. I didn't taste too bad either. I'm gonna try this ice cream lol

[@talyahyeminagomes3602]

I've made Cherry Garcia and chocolate chocolate chip ice cream. So yummy!! To cut the bite of the chocolate, I added espresso.

[@antheitmann152]

I made chocolate peanut butter cottage cheese ice cream and strawberry they were both so good! I felt really good about eating it too!

[@lovestreet2675]

Looks so good! I would use honey or real sugar instead of processed/fake sugar. All Natural is best! Also, they make creamy cottage cheese now. Love this...great job!

@@martgrigsby3404 I do like the keto chips made with it. However, it’s a pain to make in the microwave & looks like a bigger pain to make in a frying pan. One video said that a viewer made them in the oven, but I don’t remember what settings they used & I haven’t been able to perfect them.

I’m going to look around to see if any videos for this. I need to use that cottage cheese. I just saw a great rustic bread recipe that uses ricotta cheese. I ask if cottage cheese could work and she said probably since similar. Im trying it. It’s on Low Carb Abode.

Been reluctant to try this ice cream, but your response has convinced me! I just put cottage cheese on the grocery list. Thanks for testing when I was not willing to!

I made the chocolate ice cream awhile back. It was so hard I put it into the fridge to soften a bit and forgot about it. 🙄 I thought it made a great pudding. 😆

I use water flavoring drops on my cottage cheese anyway since I can't have most fruits on Keto. Black cherry is my favorite so far, but orange is good too.

I love your laugh after tasting! Makes me want to get out of bed ,run to the store and pick up the cottage cheese to make right now!

I loved your reaction to the taste test! I think the flavor of blueberries intensifies if they are cooked. I have been seeing this recipe but was afraid to try it but now i will.

[@pamelanurse2024]

Hi Wesley, new subscriber! I used my blender and Aldi’s cottage cheese with one cup of fresh blueberries, half a cup of unsweetened coconut, 1 teaspoon of coconut extract, zest from one lemon, 2 tablespoons of grated fresh ginger, and 1/3 cup of Splenda Magic which is a combination of erythritol, Allulose, and Stevia. I saved a few blueberries for the top and just refrigerated it. When I froze it, it got rock hard. It’s delicious!

[@kimfanning7339]

[@OldMotherLogo]

They may be scoopable after a couple of hours but they won’t be after 24 hours. I know because I’ve done it and it gets solid as a rock. Rather than have to let the entire container sit out to soften I would freeze it in small single serving containers so you can just soften what you’re eating. I use monk fruit as sweetener and it works well.

[@sridge52]

holy moley I have got to try this! Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I've followed your content for a long time and will continue to even though I don't practice low carb anymore. But I still watch every video you put out and love your energy! Please keep it up and I hope your channel gets bigger and bigger!

[@rodjones8188]

Heavy whipping cream, aullos sweetener, vanilla and coco powder or what ever flavor you want. It stays soft in the freezer even after a week or two. 👍 Just a heads up for you to try and go to low carb love and check her stuff out.

[@bobbykeniston7240]

I haven't tried the cottage cheese ice cream yet, but I will often use cottage cheese to make a low carb cheesecake, mainly because it is so much faster and easier than the cream cheese. Looking forward to trying this.

[@TXhomemaker]

Recipe? :)

[@skqm2000]

Please recipe

[@oakstrong1]

I used to buy ricotta or cream cheese ice-cream every week from the local ice-cream parlour. I guess it's the same thing, except the taste is creamier. Small beans, lentils and corn are also nice in an ice-cream, and with an asparagus it makes a nice and healthy starter - not a dessert - on a hot day, in ancient Roman style. :) Yes, a REAL ice-cream gets hard and you have to let it stand for a bit,, factory made or made at home. :) BTW, stevia was banned in the UK last year, it's not considered safe any more. I guess it's the same in the rest of the Europe.

[@jedwards1313]

Thanks, Wes. I had a stalker a while back so I have no social media presence at all. I don't dare access Facebook or Instagram. (Serious lunatic knocked me unconscious and stalked me for over a year cleverly dodging legal infractions.) I'll continue to see your KZbin videos and I'll watch you Rumble, too, if you go there since it's new. I'll sure support you in what I can do. You're awesome. Thanks for all you do.

[@Lucinda_Jackson]

How very frightening! I'm glad you're okay!

[@eminor42]

Oh wow! So funny that this texture and flavor is like cheesecake! I want to tell you about two products you may want to try...a brand of monk fruit called It's Just! Obviously, it has nothing else in it except monk fruit. The reason that's important is that it won't mess with you in the gut. If you know, you know. The other is Native Vanilla Bean Powder. This way you don't get the funky alcohol flavor in your food if you like to put in a bunch of vanilla, which we do. Thank you for these recipes. We don't do Tik Tok, so we're glad you passed it along for us!

[@traceywojtal9045]

Ok…I’m going to try this recipe again now that I’ve seen your video. I made one with fresh blueberries and swerve with vanilla and touch of lemon juice cooked down in skillet. I thought it tasted okay-but even tho curds were undetectable, it still had that cottage cheese texture to me. Maybe I needed to process it longer as you did.

[@pixieazul19]

The other day I had pumpkin cheesecake ice cream so it inspired me to try it with this recipe....omg!! So delicious. Added protein powder because I'm older and need to keep up my protein for muscle gain. Also added a bit of Greek yogurt, and pumpkin spice. Made mine with stevia. I'll be trying this recipe with all my favorite flavors.

[@dixiechampagne2892]

Sounds good. I live off-grid & don't typically use mechanical refrigeration, so I'm making homemade cottage cheese already. That chocolate makes my think about mall chocolate frozen yogurt back in the day (you mentioned a tangy wang). When I get home from vacay, and the rest of my belongings arrive I'll have an electric churn to use, circa 1974. Yay🎉 At some point thereafter, I plan to adopt goats and sheep, then I'll have my own milk. Super yay ❤

[@jordanbrascia3483]

FYI 😊 when you use allulose as your sweetener for ice cream keto style it stays nice and smooth it's only when you use the sugar alcohols that it becomes so hard so stick with allulose and you will have a natural ice cream texture

[@LCro958]

I've only tried the protein shake ice cream in my Ninja Creami and they're good, but they definitely need a little sweetener added to them. I'm going to give the cottage cheese ice cream a try. So glad I came across this video as your reaction to the flavors is so real. Thank you.

NOW brand liquid stevia has some wonderful flavors, like lemon twist, dark chocolate, cinnamon vanilla, which I have used to make ice creams in the Ninja Creami.

I tried this cottage cheese ice cream a few weeks ago... before I watched this video. The texture was perfect but I didn't like the salty flavor of the cottage cheese. I'm gonna give it one more try and add the vanilla like you suggested. Hopefully it will help the flavor. Thanks so much for trying this recipe.
