Who doesn’t love a chocolate ice cream! Only problem is that most ice creams on the market are just packed with sugar and low quality ingredients. For that reason we’ve created our own version that’s free of both sugar and dairy, yum!

INGREDIENTS
- 2 medium avocados
- 500ml coconut cream, frozen cubes
- 4 tablespoons Nuvia Sweetener
- ⅓ cup raw cacao powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Optional additions
- Toasted nuts
- Dark chocolate chips
- ¼ cup peanut butter
- 1 cup raspberries, fresh or frozen
- 3 shots espresso
- 1 pinch of sea salt
METHOD
- 1. In a high powered blender, add all ingredients together and blend! For the best result, continue blending for at least a minute to really get it smooth as this will incorporate a little air into the mixture, making it light and delicious. If the blender is struggling, add a dash of water until it blends nicely
- 2. If adding in toppings, using a spoon, swirl through any additions you like.
- 3. The ice cream will be a soft texture a bit like a gelato. If you like it firmer, simply place in the freezer for 30 minutes then enjoy!
