Instructions

  • Over medium heat, stir together all ingredients in a medium saucepan.
  • Stir continuously for 15 minutes.
  • When it’s close to finishing, it will get shiny and be a dark root beer color. It’s best to use a candy thermometer and look for when it reaches 300 degrees. That will give it a hard crack consistency.
  • Pour into silicone molds and put in the fridge until set. Do not touch liquid and be very careful as it is extremely hot!

Root Beer Cream Sundae Pops

Root Beer Cream Sundae Pops

Don’t be intimidated by the lovely appearance of these popsicles. They are easy to make, you just need to spend a little time freezing the layers. The three colors and three flavors are reminiscent of an old-fashioned ice cream parlor sundae. But this is a keto treat you can keep in your freezer for any day.

Servings: 6 pops
Calories: 112.4kcal
Author: Taffiny Elrod

Equipment

  • 6 popsicle molds and popsicle sticks

Ingredients

  • 4 oz heavy cream divided
  • 1 serving Cookies and Cream Keto Chow (or 1 scoop)
  • 1 serving Root Beer Float Keto Chow (or 1 scoop)
  • 20 oz water divided
  • 2 tsp cocoa powder
  • 1-2 drops cherry flavoring optional

Instructions

  • Mix 2 ounces of heavy cream, Cookies and Cream Keto Chow, and 10 ounces of water in a shaker cup or large measuring cup with a pour spout.
  • In a separate shaker cup or measuring cup repeat with the remaining 2 ounces of heavy cream, Root Beer Keto Chow, and 10 ounces of water.
  • Starting with the prepared Cookies and Cream Keto Chow fill the popsicle molds one-third full. There may be Keto Chow left over, you can drink it while you wait for your popsicles to freeze.
  • Place the molds in the freezer to set for about 30 minutes. Don’t put the popsicle sticks in the molds yet.
  • After 30 minutes, remove the popsicle molds from the freezer and check to see if the Keto Chow is partially frozen. It should be solid enough to support another layer without mixing. If it isn’t set, return it to the freezer until it is.
  • When the first layer of Keto Chow is set enough, pour the prepared Root Beer Keto Chow in to fill the molds another third of the way. Then return to the freezer to set again.
  • Mix the two teaspoons of cocoa powder, and the cherry flavoring if using it, into the remaining Root Beer Keto Chow.
  • When the second layer has set, use the cocoa flavored Keto Chow to fill the remaining third of the molds. You should have three distinct layers from lightest to darkest.
  • Finally, add the popsicle sticks. Gently pressing them into all three layers. If the bottom is too frozen you can use a knife, to carefully make a space for the stick.
  • Return to the freezer and freeze until set—at least four hours or overnight for best results.
  • When you are ready to serve the popsicles, remove them from the freezer and run the outside of the mold under hot water momentarily to loosen the popsicle before removing.

Keyword: Chef Taffiny Elrod, Rootbeer Float
Servings: 14 1-Ounce Pieces
Calories: 139.1kcal
Author: Taffiny Elrod

Equipment

  • Candy Thermometer (optional)

Ingredients

  • 4 ounces butter unsalted
  • 4 ounces Erythritol-Stevia blend granulated sweetener
  • 2 fluid ounces heavy cream (1/4 cup)
  • 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 serving Root Beer Float Keto Chow (or 1 scoop)
  • 4 ounces pecan halves
  • 1/4 tsp coarse sea salt

Instructions

  • Prepare a cookie sheet by lining it with lightly oiled tin foil
  • Put the butter and granulated sweetener in a small, non-stick skillet or saucepan and place over medium heat. Stir gently until the butter and the sweetener melt. At first the butter and sweetener will separate but as they continue to cook they will begin to come together.

  • As it continues to cook you will see many tiny bubbles breaking the surface the color will lighten and it will have an almost foamy look. You are essentially making a caramel.
    Root Beer Pecan Pralines
  • Let it cook for about ten minutes. It should look lighter in color and thicker. If you have a candy thermometer, you want it to reach a temperature of about 240 degrees.
  • When it is ready, remove pan from heat and carefully stir in the heavy cream a little at a time, and then the vanilla extract. Be careful! It may bubble up a lot when you add the liquid and it is very hot.
  • Bring it back to a boil and cook it for another two-three minutes until it looks thick again. Then remove it from the heat and allow it to cool for a minute.
  • When it has cooled, whisk in the Root Beer Float Keto Chow. It should pull together and start to look velvety and glossy as you stir the Keto Chow in.
    Root Beer Pecan Pralines
  • Then stir in the pecans and sea salt, being sure to mix them well so they are evenly distributed.
    Root Beer Pecan Pralines
  • Now working quickly, use two spoons to scoop and drop 14 rounds of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. They should look somewhat like cookie dough before baking.
  • Chill in a cool, dry place until firm, about one hour. They set up best if they can set slowly so don’t put them in the fridge or freezer if you can avoid it.
  • Once they are set, you can store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two weeks, or in the freezer for two months. If you store them in the freezer, allow them to return to room temperature before enjoying them.

Notes

NOTES: If not using a SMALL saucepan, watch carefully as the caramel will burn quickly, even on medium low heat. It is best to use a small saucepan, small burner, and candy thermometer. 
Use small spoons to scoop out to get 12-14 pieces.
