Description

This low fat and low calorie dessert will fool your taste buds and please your waist line! You would never know it is a healthier version of this classic favorite! Not to mention it is so simple to make!

Ingredients

  • 1 can (14 Oz. Size) Fat-Free Sweetened Condensed Milk
  • 1 cup Smart Balance Fat Free Milk (you Can Sub This With Organic Fat Free Milk Or Regular 2% Milk)
  • 1 whole Vanilla Bean (or Sub This For 1 To 2 Teaspoons Vanilla Extract)
  • 2 cups Cool Whip Lite
  • 12 whole Oreo Cookies, Chopped

Preparation

Open your can of sweetened condensed milk and pour it into the container you will be freezing your ice cream in (I just used a 2 quart plastic container.) Use a spatula to get all the condensed milk out of the can. Pour your Smart Balance milk into the condensed milk and give it a stir with a fork.

Then add the vanilla. I choose to use a vanilla bean because nothing compares to the flavor from a vanilla bean and I love them! If you do that you want to cut a slit down the bean with a sharp knife but do not cut the bean all the way through. With the back side of a butter knife slide it all the way down the bean until all the seeds are on the tip of your knife. Then you can just put the seeds into your milk mixture and give it a quick stir with your fork so all the seeds are disbursed throughout the milk mixture.

Now it is time to add the Cool Whip. It will not measure perfectly level and that is ok! Just measure it out as best you can and dump it into the bowl.

Use the fork to incorporate the Cool Whip into the milk until you have a smooth consistency. This will take about 4 to 5 minutes and you want as many of the chunks of Cool Whip out as possible.

At this point you want to taste the batter. It should taste just like melted ice cream. You will know if it needs more vanilla or not at this point. If so, add it!

Chop up your Oreos. This is the best part because you are in control of the size of the cookie bites in your ice cream so cut them as big or as small as you like!

Add the Oreos to the mixture and give it a stir just so they are all mixed in. Put the lid on the container and freeze for 6 to 8 hours until set. Then you eat it! And it is that easy! Enjoy!

**Cooks Note**
– You can substitute Cool Whip Free if you want to. I do not eat fake sugar so I did not use this. I am sure the results would be just as good and it would work just fine but I did not use that so I did not list it. If you try this be sure to let me know!
– I say to use Smart Balance milk because they add omega 3, protein and calcium and the fat free has a rich creamy texture and tastes like 2% milk but without the fat and calories! You get very similar taste with Fat Free Organic milk. If you want to use regular milk you can use any type but I recommend at least 2% to get a creamy texture so your ice cream is not icy.
– I have used every brand of sweetened condensed milk I can find and I find that it does not change the integrity of the ice cream so go ahead and get the cheaper stuff or get what is on sale!
