Tiramisu Ice Cream
My son Kai turns 8 years old on October 21st and he asked for coffee ice cream! My boys are true Ethiopians and LOVE anything coffee flavored. When I ask Kai what flavor of keto ice cream he wanted with his keto birthday cake, he said coffee and I thought Tiramisu! Yes! When I was in college I remember getting Ben & Jerry’s Tiramisu Ice Cream and I would eat the whole pint! Enjoying this sugar-free Tiramisu Ice Cream almost felt like I was cheating on my keto diet! It was that good!
Keto Ice Cream can often get too hard but if you click HERE, I have a lot of tricks on how to keep ice cream soft!
I LOVE this ice cream testimony!
“Dairy Queen Ice Cream I’ve missed you for the last 5 months;( . But when this ice cream maker arrived today , I said whoo hoo! Bring on Maria’s keto sugar free ice cream treats for the summer! No more missing the frozen tasty treats that I love so much!

Instructions
- LADYFINGERS: Preheat oven 375 degrees F and place parchment paper on 2 cookie sheets.

- In a separate bowl beat the whites until egg whites form stiff peaks.
- Fold almond flour and baking powder into egg yolk mixture.
- Slowly fold in the whipped egg whites, making sure not to over- mix the batter.

- In a medium saucepan place the egg yolks and sweeteners in to mix on high with a hand mixer. Whip yolks until light in color and double in size. Stir in the whipping cream.
- OPTIONAL cooking to temper eggs: to cook the custard (I skip this since I am not afraid of raw eggs): Place the saucepan onto medium heat on the stove and cook, stirring constantly. Stir until thickened into a custard. Remove from heat and stir in the coffee/espresso, rum extract and salt. Let cool completely.
- Place into your ice cream machine and watch the magic happen within 15 or according to your ice cream maker's directions.

TESTIMONY OF THE DAY
“I just want to thank you Maria and Craig. The picture on the left is the day I knew something needed to change. I had hit 200 pounds, was depressed and absolutely miserable. The photo on the right is from a week ago after 45 pounds lost. Keto has been a God-send. I feel absolutely amazing physically and emotionally. No cravings, food addiction gone. Depression gone. Thank you both for educating us on this way of life. Your book Keto has helped me in so many ways. You guys truly inspire me! Keto on!! Many blessings to you both! ” – Melissa

Can you share the carb, fat, calorie breakdown? Thank you so much! Can’t wait to try it!!
Just added.
Can you make this dairy-free? Would coconut milk/cream work?
It should work. And Kit Hill cream cheese. 🙂
Please, what size is this ice cream maker? I have a 1/2 gallon one, what kind of adjustments in the recipe do I need to make, if any? thanks
That should work. 🙂
My favorite!! You are so amazing! Happy birthday Kai!! ❤️❤️
Does this ice cream get super hard once stored? If there’s even any left over to store? 😜
Erythritol does that. If you use another sweetener it won’t (like allulose).

Love this, can you recommend a non dairy alternative? I could wing it, but in case you have already done it, I thought I would ask
I love coffee ice cream!
Could you please tell me how you would use Allulose in this recipe to keep the ice cream scoopable?
Thank you for all you do.
Just sub for swerve one to one. 🙂
