Chocolate Coconut Milk Ice Cream Recipe

Ingredients

• 2 cans full-fat coconut cream/milk
• 1/2 cup cocoa powder
• 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 tsp sea salt

Instructions

1. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, cocoa powder, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt until well combined.
   
2. Pour the mixture into the bowl of an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions until the ice cream is frozen and has a smooth texture.
   
3. Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for an additional 1-2 hours, or until it is firm enough to scoop.
   
4. To serve, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften, then scoop into bowls or cones and enjoy!

Notes

If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can still make this ice cream by freezing the mixture in a shallow dish and stirring it every 30 minutes until it is frozen. However, using an ice cream maker will result in a smoother and creamier texture that is more like traditional ice cream. When serving, be sure to use a sharp ice cream scoop or dip the scoop in warm water to make it easier to scoop out.

• If you prefer a sweeter ice cream, you can adjust the amount of honey or maple syrup to your liking. Just keep in mind that adding more sweetener will also increase the calorie count.

• For a fun twist on this recipe, you can also try using different flavors of extract, such as almond or peppermint, instead of vanilla.

• This ice cream is also a great option for those who are lactose intolerant or following a paleo or keto diet, as it is free of dairy and grains and contains healthy fats and natural sweeteners.
