This is pretty good! I don't usually try to cook with my microwave, so I had some trouble getting it to thicken. It took me about 4 minutes. But besides that, it was easy and tasty.

Sounds good! Comercial ice creams would be nice as most of us do not have an ice cream freezer.

I make this for my Uncle who is a dialysis patient. I use ice cream/beverage flavorings from Lorannoils.com (they have been approved by his Davita dietian first) to give him variety and the flavors he can't have because of his dietary restrictions. He needs to gain weight so I also make this recipe, but instead of putting it into the ice cream maker, I just chill it - and he drinks it like a shake. He drinks these shakes with his meals as his fluid allowance. It's great because he is drinking protein and added calories - but not having to add more food to his diet to gain weight. Thanks so much for the recipe.
