Description

This carnivore ice cream is my go-to for those moments when I crave something cold, creamy, and indulgent without stepping outside an animal-based diet. Made from just heavy cream, butter, and egg yolks, it brings a nostalgia-packed richness that tastes like old-fashioned frozen custard. It’s incredibly smooth, deeply satisfying, and shockingly simple to make. Whether you’re following a strict carnivore plan or just looking for a low-carb dessert that feels luxurious, this recipe delivers every time. With just a handful of ingredients and a surprisingly easy method, it turns into a perfectly scoopable treat that even non-carnivore family members love.
