    Sounds a bit rubbish bro. Are you not getting enough cals from your diet? You should be eating every 2-3 hours. A good "home made" weight gainer would probably contain whey protein, rolled oats, banana & honey. Some people would also add natural peanut butter or some flax but i wouldn't like to mix my carbs and fats.

    Adding the fat free ice cream would just be adding sugar to your protein, and I don't see that as being beneficial in any diet goals(except dextrose PWO, of course). Why don't you take a look at the bulking sticky at the top of the main page in the diet forum?
