Fresh coffee frozen yogurt cream is a favourite of ours. It's mild coffee flavour and creamy texture is mouth-wateringly delicious! The addition of roasted hazelnuts and homemade chocolate chips gives this simple flavour some extra pezaz!
My original idea was to add the hazelnuts and the chocolate to the ice cream mixture but one of us wanted it without the hazelnuts so they went on top instead! So if you like hazelnuts and white chocolate, please add them in before freezing. SCD Ice Cream is made with yogurt cream which is fermented for 24 hours.
"The Lactose in the milk is a disaccharide and the fermentation converts it to galactose which is a monosaccharide that is easy to absorb as well as to L-lactic acid (the form the body can use). We also restrict the bacteria cultures that are used to ferment the milk to specific ones that have been found to be very beneficial.to ensure the lactose is converted to galactose, a monosacsharide the body can easily absorb." from Breaking the Vicious CycleYogurt Cream
300ml organic double cream
600ml organic whole milk
Make the Yogurt Cream two days ahead following my instructions for making SCD yogurt but use organic double cream and organic whole milk instead of just milk. For a richer yogurt cream use half cream and half whole milk.
When I started to cook for the SCD one of my favourite buys was an ice-cream maker, you will also need one to make this dessert. Remember to put the bowl into the freezer the night before. It's also a good idea to put your whisks and mixing bowl into the fridge for an hour beforehand.
