Tips
- For a sugar-free tubpint, swap the sugar for a 1:1 granulated sweetener. Allulose stays softest.
- Skim milk works and cuts a few more calories, but may need a second Re-spin.
- Use vanilla bean paste for visible specks and a rounder flavor.

Why it works
A spoon of cream cheese gives lean milk enough body to spin smooth, and the sugar lowers the freezing point so the tubpint is not rock hard.
