Early Preparation is Key
Following a Keto diet often requires some extra planning, but the results are worth it. You’ll quickly realize how much sugar is hidden in everyday foods. Preparing ahead ensures that you’re always ready to enjoy Keto-friendly treats without any last-minute hassles.
For these ice cream sandwiches, preparation is crucial. Besides freezing your ice cream maker bowl ahead of time, you’ll also need to refrigerate a can of coconut milk until the cream separates and hardens. If you already have a can of coconut cream, that works too, but you’ll still need coconut milk for the recipe.
