I made this ice cream into Mint Choc Chip. Added Mint extract in place of the vanilla. 4 Drops of green food colouring (it made it bright green, but when it came out of the freezer the colour had faded more to a very pale natural green), Chocolate crunch sprinkles and finished with chopped chocolate chips. I followed the first step as written but then used my ice cream maker, then left overnight to firm up. Nice ice cream will make it again, only negative for me it is very, very soft so melting by the time you scoop it out of the tub.

I LOVE this ice cream! So amazing! I used vanilla yogurt instead of sour cream and I added coffee for flavor. AMAZING!

Love this icecream recipe. I made it to along with the Dutch Apple Pie from this site. Still in the process of freezing. So far it's so yummy I'm tempted to used it as a more whipped cream topping versus Ice cream (personal preference) Hubby wants the icecream though :)

i literally went through every recipe on this site to try to find a homemade ice cream recipe that needed no heavy cream, or an ice cream maker, and this is one of the most low-calorie, easy, and versatile. 1st batch i used splenda, vanilla yogurt, 1/2 c liquid egg whites from the carton. i didnt beat the eggs and splenda until stiff. i stirred it often and still got the ice crystal consistency but it tasted smooth and delicious anyway. i don't recommend using this recipe for vanilla, because it tasted exactly like frozen vanilla yogurt. 2nd batch, i used 1/2 yogurt and 1/2 sour cream and added 1/3 cup pumpkin, 2 T sugar, and pump. pie spice. i tried to beat the eggs until stiff, but it didnt make a diff. last batch, i used only sour cream, and added cinn. i would recommend this flavor, and i couldn't taste the sour cream. I wouldn't recommend telling people there is sour cream in it, at least not until after they eat it :](learned the hard way). at first, this recipe scared me because i HATE sour cream, but i'm definitely glad i tried it as it was masked by the flavoring in both of my batches. from now on, i will try this recipe with fat-free yogurt and fat-free sour cream, and the flavors peanut butter, key lime pie, and CAKE BATTER (my favorite :]).thank you much for this recipe!!! also, note to all, if you freeze the container you're going to make the ice cream in (i use tupperware, or old plastic containers) it does firm up faster so i would recommend doing this!

Today was a really hot day here and I wanted some icecream. I didn't have any heavy cream as most ice cream recipes call for. So this was awesome. I was really surprised at how yummy it was. And what a wonderful texture! I give this one a thumbs up! Thank you Granny!

Awesome! Love it!!! It takes alot of work. I sub mostly yogurt for the sour cream. Try to whip it more than every half hour. My favourite so far is shaved rich dark chocolate and cherry chunks. Mmmmmmm. Finally a guilt-free ice cream! Thank you!!

Very good recipe. Easy to make and uses simple ingredients. I made my first batch strawberry and substituted strawberry yogurt for the sour cream and added fresh strawberries. My only complaint was I left the strawberries cut into big chunks, when they froze it was like having ice cubes in my ice cream. Next time I will cut them smaller or puree. This ice cream has a good flavor, but is not as creamy as other ice creams made with cream. I stirred it every 30 min as the recipe suggested and it was a tad bit icy.

SO FUN TO MAKE! My kids and I had a great time making this. For our first try, we made vanilla, but we will expand our ice cream flavor ideas. So sweet and really yummy. A keeper for us!
