Best Weight Watcher's homemade ice cream

[SCrammerjammer]

I'm asking. The Krispy Kreem bread pudding has put me on a lifelong diet. (I may break and put some ON my KKBreadPudding. Hummm....

Any suggestions?

This is from Cooking Light. It is 3pts a serving as is. I have used 1 cup regular half-and-half and 1 cup fat free half-and-half which tends to make it more icy and less creamy but it cuts out a lot of the fat. I have tried 2% and skim milk as well all with the same result. This ice cream is good with fresh strawberries on top too.

Lemon-Buttermilk Ice Cream

1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup fresh lemon juice (about 10 lemons)
2 cups half-and-half
2 cups whole milk
2 cups fat-free buttermilk

Combine sugar and juice in a large bowl, stirring with a whisk until sugar dissolves. Add half-and-half, whole milk, and buttermilk. Pour mixture into the freezer can of an ice-cream freezer; freeze according to manufacturer's instructions. Spoon ice cream into a freezer-safe container. Cover and freeze 1 hour or until firm.

Yield: 18 servings (serving size: 1/2 cup)

I have decided that I'll watch carbs, calories, cholesterol, fat, etc. most of the time (think "South Beach"), but not when I eat ice cream. So I don't even try in that dimension. Of course, I don't have ice cream very often either, but when I do, I reeeeeeeaaallly enjoy it!
