The Nice Cream Ingredients that Shine!

CACAO NIBS: this right here you guys! CACAO NIBS! If you haven’t tried these amazing crunchy morsels that are actually crushed up dried cacao beans you are missing out! It’s like all the fun of chocolate without any of the bad stuff! Haha the amazing crunchy texture is a gamecher here, giving you that amazing chocolate flavor we know and love with choc chip ice cream but an added
HEALTH BOOST: I snack on these all the time too. They contain so many antioxidants that can help reduce cell damage in the body and the amounts of fiber in cacao nibs aids with digestion! So when you need that choc fix. Reach for the cacao nibs!
AVOCADO: this dreamy fruit is not just for savory dishes! The creamy texture is so perfect when used in sweet dishes. I use them in smoothies all the time for this very reason. There’s very little flavor and all the textural and health benefits. Plus it helps add that beautiful muted green color!
COCONUT MILK: here’s where we get CREAMY! Coconut milk is such a lovely base for non dairy ice creams. Rich and thick it gives the most amazing texture. This recipe is made with full fat coconut milk. For an even thicker consistency you could use coconut cream 🙂
PEPPERMINT: Extract the nostalgia!! I grew up lovingggg mint choc chip ice cream. That unmistakable wack ya in ya taste buds peppermint flavor will forever be in my heart. So it was so fun to recreate a plant based version! You can adjust the amount of peppermint extract to your taste

Creating your own bowl of vegan ice cream

Now, let’s make some magic! Blend together coconut milk, maple syrup, frozen banana, a touch of spinach (for color), peppermint extract, and frozen avocado until silky smooth. Then, stir in those fabulous cacao nibs, and scoop your nice cream into a bowl.

Toppings Galore

The fun doesn’t stop there! Top your nice cream with macadamia nuts, granola, and coconut for that perfect crunch and extra flavor. It’s a summer breakfast or snack bliss that’s not just tasty but also nutritious.
