Description
Vegan chocolate ice cream, made with just three ingredients - coconut milk, dark chocolate, and maple syrup. It's a lightly sweet, creamy ice cream, and so simple to make.
Ingredients
- 2 cans full-fat coconut milk divided (400 ml / 13.5 oz.)
- 100 grams (3.5 oz) dark chocolate or one bar, finely chopped
- 60 ml (¼ cup) date or maple syrup
- 1 batch Vegan Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chunk Cookies for sandwiches
Instructions
- Make sure your ice cream maker is full frozen and ready to use before proceeding.
- Pour one full can of coconut milk into a small saucepan and heat over medium heat until just simmering.2 cans full-fat coconut milk
- While the milk is heating, place the chopped chocolate into a large bowl. Scoop the cream out of the second can of coconut milk and set aside.100 grams (3.5 oz) dark chocolate
- Once the milk is hot, pour it over the chopped chocolate into the bowl. Let this rest for 30 seconds, then whisk until fully combined.
- Add the separated coconut cream to the bowl and whisk again. The residual heat should melt any lumps of cream.
- Add the date syrup and whisk again until fully combined. If you are adding any extras, like vanilla, this is the time to do so.60 ml (¼ cup) date
- Cool the ice cream base to room temperature before refrigerating to chill fully, at least four hours.
- Pour the chilled mixture into your prepared ice cream maker. Churn according to the machine instructions, until creamy and frozen.*
- Place the churned ice cream into an airtight container and freeze. Remove it from the freezer and let it sit out for ten minutes at room temperature before serving.
