This Keto Mason Jar chocolate ice cream has become my new obsession! It’s quick, easy to make and only 3 net carbs per serving!
Sure, there are other ice cream brands like Halo and Rebel that are just as delicious but at $4-$6 a pint that tends to get expensive. This recipe is fairly inexpensive to make and tastes just like Wendy’s chocolate frosty. I like to triple the batch and pour it into portion cups and freeze so I can have it on hand for the whole week.
To portion out the keto ice cream, I used these Snapwear portion cups. They are sturdy and have a suction cup lid that snaps on to keep it secured when freezing. There are also lots of other varieties of freezer portion cups to choose from if you want something different.
For this recipe I used Lakanto Monkfruit Classic sweetener, which is keto friendly. If you’re wanting to try the Lakanto Monkfruit Classic Sweetener or any other Lakanto products visit them here and enter the code KETO at checkout for a discount.
Can I freeze mason jars with metal lids?
Yes, you can. Some people say that the mason jars with the metal lids tend to hold up just fine in the freezer and a great way to make ice cream in but others have had them break. Others have said that the glass ones may break, you can use plastic mason jars instead. For this recipe I used a large plastic mason jar container versus a glass one.

February 19, 2020 at 2:47 pmSounds great Alison! Can you suggest any other sweetener that might work the same?
Alison
February 19, 2020 at 4:01 pmYou can use a granular erythritol. Or if you don’t want it keto friendly you can use regular sugar.

February 20, 2020 at 10:35 amAlison. I just made this with exact ingredients you have listed. I cup HWC is 789 calories and unsweetened cocoa is 40 so for 2 servings it would be around 415 calories per 1 serving and you have 222 per 1 serving. I am new to Keto so where did I go wrong.

May 20, 2020 at 8:38 amthis ice cream is not scoopable is it ? it becomes rock hard and you have yo thaw it out to eat?

March 19, 2021 at 8:01 pmWe just made this for the first time and can’t believe how rock hard it is. We thought it was really good, but the hardness was disappointing.

June 6, 2020 at 9:45 am1/2 c whipping cream has 400 cals and 43 gm fat!! Am just a little worried about this much in one serving. As a treat even…..

March 30, 2021 at 9:17 pmMy heavy cream says 1 carb per 1tbsp. So that would be A WHOLE lot of carbs.
Alison
March 30, 2021 at 9:41 pmI would look for a different brand that has less carbs. I use my local store’s brand. It’s less carbs.

July 5, 2021 at 7:32 pmAlthough this may not be keto friendly, I add 1 tbsp of vodka ( not for the alcohol ), this prevents the ice-cream from freezing hard. I would like to note that I also make a triple batch for the whole family and the alcohol is simply a preventative ingredient. For those that enjoy alcohol, feel free to use a 4tbsp amount if your favorite choice Rum, vodka, or liquor.
Hope this helps
