Café au Lait Ice Cream Sundae
Yield: Makes 4 servings
Ingredients:
3
cups whipping cream, divided

4
egg yolks, lightly beaten

1
tablespoon instant coffee granules

1/2
cup plus 2 tablespoons no-calorie sugar substitute for baking, divided

1/2
teaspoon vanilla

1/2
cup chopped walnuts or pecans



Preparation:
1.
Pour 2 cups cream into medium saucepan. Whisk egg yolks and coffee granules into cream. Heat 10 minutes over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture reaches 160°F. Mixture will thicken as it cooks.

2.
Pour mixture into bowl; stir in 1/2 cup sugar substitute until well blended. Refrigerate 2 to 3 hours or until cold. Pour chilled mixture into ice cream maker; process according to manufacturer's directions.

3.
Whip remaining 1 cup cream, 2 tablespoons sugar substitute and vanilla until stiff. Scoop ice cream into serving bowls; top with whipped cream. Sprinkle with nuts just before serving.


Tip: The ice cream will become harder the longer it is stored in the freezer, so it is best eaten when freshly made.
