Chocolate Ice Cream (No-Churn)

Whisking the cocoa powder into a small amount of hot water first to form a smooth paste before folding it into the whipped cream is what prevents dry cocoa clumps from ending up in the finished ice cream.

Ingredients

  • 2 cans full-fat coconut milk, refrigerated overnight
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 3 tbsp hot water
  • 1/2 cup allulose
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt

Method

  1. 1

    Whisk cocoa powder into the hot water until it forms a smooth, thick paste, then let it cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Scoop the solid cream from the chilled coconut milk cans and whip with a mixer until stiff peaks form.

  3. 3

    Fold the cooled cocoa paste into the whipped cream along with allulose, vanilla, and salt — mixing the cocoa into a paste first like this, rather than sprinkling it in dry, is what prevents small dry cocoa clumps from ending up scattered through the finished ice cream.

  4. 4

    Pour into a loaf pan, press plastic wrap onto the surface, and freeze at least 6 hours (plus 6h freeze).

  5. 5

    Let sit at room temperature 5-10 minutes before scooping.
