Description

Home-made vegan ice cream has never been so easy—and delicious—as in this ultimate recipe for a chunky dark chocolate and toasted walnut ice cream featuring coconut milk.


Ingredients

Scale

Basic Nice Cream:

  • 1 13.5-ounce can coconut milk (do not use coconut milk beverage, or light coconut milk)
  • 1 13.5-ounce can coconut cream
  • ¼ cup agave syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Additions:


Instructions

  1. Combine coconut milk, coconut cream, agave syrup and vanilla in a medium pan, and heat over medium setting, stirring frequently until mixture starts bubbling.
  2. Remove from heat and mix with an immersion blender (or pour into a blender container) for 1-2 minutes until very creamy and well combined.
  3. Transfer mixture to a container, cover, and chill in the refrigerator until it completely cools down (about 2 hours). Fold in the dark chocolate chunks and walnuts with a spoon.
  4. Churn in an ice cream maker, following manufacturer’s directions, until thick and creamy (depending on ice cream maker, about 5-15 minutes).
  5. Place in a container in the freezer until it achieves desired firmness to scoop (about 1-2 hours).
  6. Scoop into dishes and serve.
  7. Makes about 5 cups (about 10 ½-cup servings).
