Creamy Chocolate Avocado Ice Cream

Ingredients:

  • 1 (13.5 ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 large barely ripe avocado, pitted
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup water

Instructions:

  1. Blend the Base:
    • In a blender, combine the coconut milk and avocado. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  2. Add Flavor and Sweetness:
    • Add the unsweetened cocoa powder, pure maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the blender. Blend again until all the ingredients are well combined.
  3. Adjust Consistency:
    • If the mixture is too thick, add the water gradually while blending until you reach the desired consistency. The mixture should be smooth and pourable.
  4. Freeze the Mixture:
    • Pour the ice cream mixture into a freezable container. Make sure to cover the container to prevent ice crystals from forming.
  5. Stir and Freeze:
    • Place the container in the freezer and let it freeze for about 30 minutes to an hour. Every 30 minutes, take the container out and stir the mixture. This will help prevent ice crystals from forming and ensure a creamy texture.
  6. Enjoy:
    • Once the ice cream is frozen and has reached the desired consistency, scoop it out and serve. Top with your favorite toppings, such as caramel sauce, chopped nuts, or fresh berries.
