Best Vegan Creamy Chocolate Ice cream

This is a wonderfully refreshing favorite recipe of mine.

I am not the biggest fan of ice cream, but sometimes the addition of an ice cream scoop to another dessert is just perfect. I personally love my ice cream right next to a hot piece of chocolate cake... Yummy.
Recently I tried it with a buttery vegan croissant and let me tell you - It is amazing!

If I do have to eat ice cream by itself, I would always choose chocolate because that is just my style :)

  Variations
  •  Instead of melted chocolate, you can add the same amount of creamy peanut butter / pistachio paste / Vegan white chocolate / Dulce de leche.. pretty much any paste-like substitution.
  • Try adding chunks of chocolate / sprinkles / nuts / cookie crumbles after the last mixing step.

 

Dark chocolate
I can write so many good things about dark chocolate, my personal opinion is very clear if you already know me :) I love it.
Now, as objectively as I can, I will write a little bit of important info about this amazing material

  • It is one of the best sources of antioxidants on the planet
  • 100 grams of Dark chocolate contains 11 grams of fiber 
  • Dark chocolate is rich in other nutrients, for example ,iron, magnesium, copper, and manganese
  •  It has been proven that consuming quality dark chocolate is linked to a reduction of heart disease

So, chocolate is amazing! Just make sure to choose quality dark chocolate and eat it in moderation! Purple Wildflour Vegan BakeryWhenever I go into the kitchen, whether it is for cooking or baking, I need to have my music with me. I thought it would be nice to share with you the exact song that describes my feeling towards each recipe. That way you can have a similar experience while cooking...

This recipe is all you need on a hot summer day so it reminds me of Good Vibrations by The Beach Boys.Purple Wildflour Vegan Bakery

Let's start:

Prep time: 20 min.
Cooling time: 3 hrs.
Difficulty: simple Servings: 8 servings



Tools: Ingredients:

Optional:  Vegan dark chocolate chipsChopped almonds/ Vegan sprinkles

  Instructions:
  1. Start with melting your chocolate in the heat-resistant bowl, on top of a saucepan with water (bain-marie). once the chocolate is melted, remove from heat and place to cool on the counter.
  2. In a mixer bowl, Place the cooled coconut cream and begin beating it into an airy texture.
  3. Take half of the condensed milk and add to the chocolate, mix well. The milk will help the chocolate to cool down faster and will prevent the chocolate from hardening while cooling.
  4. Add the chocolate to the mixer bowl, keep beating until it combines.
  5. Add the rest of the condensed milk, the vanilla, and the xanthan gum, keep beating for 3 more minutes.
  6. Remove the bowl and transfer the ice cream into a sealed container, place in the freezer for 1 hour.
  7. After 1 hour, remove the ice cream and place again in the mixer's bowl. Beat well (use the spatula to make sure all the ice cream is beat together).
  8. Return the ice cream into it's container, and freeze for another 1 hour.
  9. Again, remove the ice cream, and place in the mixer's bowl. Beat it well. At this point, add any additions you want (chocolate chips/ nuts/ sprinkles), mix well.
  10. Transfer the ice cream into it's container one last time.
  11. Freeze for another hour before the ice cream is finally ready.
  12. Enjoy!

  Notes - 

* This recipe is intended for people that want to make ice cream, but don't own an Ice cream machine. The steps of alternating mixing and freezing are intended to copy the effect of an ice cream maker which mixes while freezing.

This is the closest way I have to resemble the texture of machine-made ice cream.
