I googled *low calorie ice cream recipes* and found several. This is one: low calorie ice cream.

eeerrrrr "1 can sweetened condensed milk" Not exactly low calorie in my view. Shame, I was hoping to find that sweetener would work so that I could make for son with diabetes. Back to the drawing board ...

Edit
this one looks better, although does involve messing about with gelatin which I find tricky.

Make as normal, but have a smaller portion.

No point in messing about with HM Ice Cream - it's the simple combination of eggs, sugar & cream that makes it so perfect - just look at the list of "ingredients" on any bought "luxury" branrd.

I would think it's fine.
The issue with cooking with substitutes is generally how they can be affcted by heat. Never heard of anything food stuff becoming "unstable" with cold.

I make a chestnut ice cream (not low sugar) in which I use low fat evaporated milk. I guess if you used fruit with a sweetener and evaporated milk you could make a very skinny ice cream!
