My notes

Tips

  • Allulose keeps it soft and light. Where it is not sold, use sugar for a classic froyo with about 35 kcal more per serving, or a 1:1 granulated sweetener. Erythritol blends freeze harder, so let the tubpint stand for 10 minutes before spinning and plan on a Re-spin.
  • Dutch-process cocoa gives a darker color and a smoother chocolate flavor. Natural cocoa tastes sharper and fruitier.
  • The shavings add about 15 kcal per serving. Warm the bar in your hand for a minute, so it curls instead of crumbling.

Why it works

Dissolving cocoa in hot milk makes a smooth syrup, so the chocolate tastes deep, not dusty. Cocoa adds solids that thicken the froyo, and allulose keeps it soft with few calories.
