Coconut Milk Ice Cream Recipe
Make Your Own Coconut Milk Dessert
Using an ice cream maker, the result was fabulous. The only problem is that it didn’t freeze up to ice cream consistency–only a thick milkshake consistency. Here’s the super-easy recipe, with two options, using an ice cream maker or the Blendtec.
Ingredients
- 1 can coconut milk
- ½ cup raw, organic agave, real maple syrup, or raw honey (with honey, decrease by 2 Tbsp)
- ¼ cup raw chocolate powder (you could use chocolate nibs or non-alkalized cocoa)
- ¼ tsp. sea salt
Note: You could also replace some of the coconut milk with frozen banana slices.
How to Make the World’s Best Chocolate Coconut Ice Cream
Step 1: Blend All the Ingredients
Blend all in Blendtec until smooth and process in ice cream maker for 30 minutes.
Step 2: Freeze into Ice Cubes
This technique worked better for me: freezing most of the concoction into 10 ice cubes, then blending the ice cubes and the remaining liquid mixture in the Blendtec, serving immediately.
Enjoy!
