Choc Mint Vegan Ice Cream

My kids don't eat much ice cream really. I buy a small tub of dairy free occasionally and sometimes make a chocolate one but I thought I'd have a go with Nature's Charm Coconut Whipping Cream and see how it turned out.

Alex loves mint and so I thought I'd give that a go. It turned out really lovely and he was pretty impressed. You can easily adjust the amount of sweetener or mint to suit your family, or even add more choc chips ;-)

Choc Mint Vegan Ice Cream - Happy Tummies

Choc Mint Vegan Ice Cream Recipe

Gluten free, wheat free, dairy free, soy free, egg free, nut free (ensure chocolate is soy free if required)

Ingredients:

2 cans Nature's Charm Coconut Whipping Cream, refrigerate for at least a day before using
½ cup (170g) maple syrup
½ tsp Chef's Choice Peppermint Extract
Hopper Natural Green Food Colour - just pour some in until you are happy with the colour
200g vegan chocolate chips - I used Enjoy Life Mini Chips

Method

Pour both cans of coconut whipping cream cream into a clean food processor and whip until thick
Add in peppermint extract to taste (you may need to adjust this if you like less or more mint flavour, or you use a different brand to me)
Add in maple syrup to taste - feel free to adjust the quantity to suit your family
Add Hopper Natural Colour in green until you feel like the colour is right
Carefully pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn until ready
Add choc chips before you turn off the ice cream maker so they are mixed through
You can serve immediately as show in the picture or pop in the freezer to firm up a bit
Note: This ice cream will freeze hard so if not eaten immediately or that day, you'll need to take it out to soften before serving - unless you pour into icy pole moulds like this. You could always just make a half serve and eat it all that day :-)

I served in some Eskal Ice Cream Cones I'd drizzled on a little melted chocolate and sprinkled on some Hopper 100s & 1000s. I did this before I made the ice cream so they had time to set. Make sure you set them in the fridge upside down on some baking paper

Enjoy! Lisa x
