A delicious Keto Friendly Mint Chocolate Chip Frozen Custard made with Torani Sugar-Free Peppermint Syrup. It will help you keep your carbs low and your protein high all while indulging in a sweet treat.
My all-time favorite ice cream is mint chocolate chip. It’s the kind I want if I want ‘plain’ ice cream in a cup or a cone. Vanilla needs to be doctored up and I prefer cookies and cream in a milkshake.
The thing is we’ve been trying to lose some weight and that means ice cream is a no-go because of all the sugar and milk carbs. So to indulge a little I decided to make a Keto Friendly Mint Chocolate Chip Frozen Custard.
Yes, this frozen custard is sugar-free!
You heard me right. This frozen custard is completely sugar-free and very low carb thanks to using heavy cream and an almond coconut blend.
I prefer the blend to straight almond milk. Coconut milk tastes better in my opinion and gives the frozen custard a little something extra.
Frozen Custard = Protein!
I chose to make a frozen custard rather than just regular ice cream to give it some protein. You know since Keto is all about protein and low carbs making this recipe the perfect mix!
To make this yummy Mint Chocolate Chip Frozen Custard sugar free I mainly used Torani Sugar Free Peppermint Syrup. It is made with simple ingredients like Splenda and is completely carb, calorie, and sugar-free.
All you’ll find is a great peppermint taste!
Torani mixes so well into drinks, desserts, and this Keto Friendly Mint Chocolate Chip Frozen Custard.
I love that just by changing which Torani Sugar-Free Syrup (they offer SO MANY different flavors) and extract I use I can completely change the flavor profile of this dessert.

While peppermint is typically thought of as a winter holiday flavor this frozen custard will change your mind. Not to mention, it is so easy to use and goes great in coffee drinks, cocoa, fudge, icing and more!
Oh, and I love adding it to my iced teas too which is perfect for these 90+ degrees we’ve been having. Or, just spoon it on some chocolate ice cream to cool off. Yum!
