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!

Very good just as is. I didn't have an ice cream machine to make it in, but it still had a great texture.

This recipe was amazing. I added mint extract, green food coloring and chocolate chips to make a chocolate mint ice cream and everyone loved it. I am now in the middle of making a cappucinno ice cream with instant coffee and cocoa.

This recipe is excellent for those of us without a fully equipped kitchen. Even though I had to beat my eggs in a pot because I have neither metal nor glass mixing bowls, we were able to enjoy homemade low-fat cookies n' cream ice cream within a few hours. Its not exactly like the kind you would find at a parlor, but we like it just the same.

really easy & suprisingly very ice creamy! i used 6 oz light yogurt ilo sour cream, and added canned peaches. stirred every 30 mins for about 2 hours & then it was frozen. as it was freezing it tasted like cool whip and i began to get a little disappointed, but now that it's totally frozen, it really tastes like ice cream! and pretty healthy too compared to ice cream you buy in a store. we'll see what my friends at our july 4th cookout think... thanks, daphna!

This was surprisingly good! I used half sour cream & half vanilla yogurt & added mini-chocolate chips. I made sure to stir it every 30 minutes & it came out pretty creamy. I'm going to make up another batch this weekend & make the rum raisin this time.

We didn't really like this. It was really lacking in flavor, creaminess, texture etc. Thanks anyway.
