2 Tbsp. instant espresso coffee powder
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 1/4 cup heavy cream
4 oz. egg substitute
2 tsp. vanilla extract

Blend for another few seconds before your pour into your ice cream freezer. Follow the instructions on your ice cream freezer manual for the rest of the steps (each freezer is slightly different).
