What is Semifreddo?
Semifreddo is a semi-frozen dessert. In Italian it means “half cold” or “half frozen.”
It has a soft, smooth and creamy texture, but I think the typical ice cream will make its creaminess.
The simple ingredients for creamy semifred are egg yolks, sugar and whipped cream. It is much more airy and lighter than traditional ice cream.
You can make it with or without eggs, but egg yolks really make this amazing recipe like a frozen mousse for coffee lovers who are easy to fall in love. The best part is that you don’t need an ice cream maker for this delicious recipe of homemade keto ice cream!
Keto Semifreddo is Italian ice cream
Semifreddo is not stirred up and requires no ice cream machine, making it a quick and easy frozen dessert perfect for making at home.
It’s similar to my vanilla bean gelato in my cookbook, my cookbook, but naturally keto, but gelato requires a loose process, so you need an ice cream machine. To exchange the regular sugar used in typical semifreds, I used monkfruit allureos sweets and liquid allureos.
You can use the keto-friendly alternative sweetener you like. However, Swerve is less sweet than most Keto Sweeteners, so I don’t want to trade the same amount of Swerve.
I recommend half of what I used for Swerve with another keto sweetener. If you’re new to Allulose, a fairly new keto sweetener, I’ve written about it in my Keto Bread Pudding recipe.
Using a variety of sweetener combinations will help you with the aftertaste and taste and adjust the level of sweetness you prefer.
I created a sweetener guide and conversion chart to help me determine which sweeteners you can use with.
Apart from the sugar exchange for keto sweeteners, this recipe is made with egg yolks, espresso and heavy cream, resembling regular ice cream, all accepted for low carb and ketogenic diets.
This had a coffee flavor so don’t worry if you’re not an espresso fan.
Tools to create Semifreddo
9 x 5 packs – I like this ceramic pan. Because even if you decide to cut semifred straight in a pan, it won’t hurt it like a non-stick loaf pan.
It’s useful when you’re slicing meatloaf too!
Stand Mixer – Having a stand mixer is one of the best purchases I’ve made in the kitchen. I leave it on the counter and actually use it every day.
Double Boiler – You cannot set the bowl on top of a saucepan, but this is convenient whenever you need to gently melt something.
I made this lovely keto frozen perfect dessert for my parents and family on Christmas Day. I realized it wasn’t like a traditional Christmas sweet treat, but I had our favorite desserts like my biscotti and pecan snowman and accompanied us to our coffee at this semi-ferred.
My father, born in Sicily, commented with his very thick accent.

Line up the 9 x 5 pans with plastic wrap or sheets of parchment and hang on the sides enough to cover. Please put it aside.
Using a stand or hand mixer, beat heavy whipped cream, vanilla extract, and sweeteners up to the whip to retain its shape. Take a spoonful of cream mixture and stir it into the coffee egg mixture to soften it.
Slow the electric mixer and drizzle the rest of the coffee egg yolk mixture until everything is combined and smooth.
Stir in optional chocolate chunks if necessary.
Pour this into a bun, cover the top and leave in the freezer for 4-6 hours, or, if possible, overnight.
Remove from the freezer 10 minutes before you want to serve. Top with shaved chocolate or chocolate chips if necessary. Slice it and have fun!
Storage: Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months.
