Lower Fat Butterscotch Ice Cream

"I created this recipe as I wanted to use up some butterscotch schnapps and thought of butterscotch ice cream! I really enjoy it because the texture is nice and smooth and creamy. The small amount of half and half in this ice cream gives enough fat to help reduce it from freezing solid upon sitting in the freezer. The gelatin also helps with this. If you would like a richer ice cream, use half and half in place of the evaporated milk."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Hi! Thanks for visiting my page! I just graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Human Nutritional Sciences in May 2008 after 5 years of hard work. My hard work paid off as I was accepted to a post graduate dietetic internship which I am currently completing and will be done in June. The internship allows me achieve professional designation as a registered dietitian. This is a very exciting but also a very busy time for me so I have not been contributing to zaar nearly as much as i'd like to. I have always loved baking and cooking and looking for healthier recipes or ways to make recipes healthier to fit into my lifestyle. I am pesco-vegetarian as I do not want animals to suffer for my consumption. I also love to be active in individual sports and train year round for triathlon. I am both an active racer and volunteer. The distance I prefer most is the Sprint distance - 750m swim, 20km bike, 5km run. This upcoming race season marks my 16th year of participating in triathlon. I love it just as much, if not more, than I did 16 years ago!! I also have a newfound love for Iyengar yoga. I have a profound love for animals and the pretty little kitty you see as my icon is my 16 1/2 year old cat Snuggles. Sadly, Snug passed away in March 2006, and is dearly, dearly missed.

Layla (the calico) came home with us from the Humane Society in September and Saxon (black and white) came home two months later as a companion for Layla.
