Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup dairy free chocolate chips
- 1 can coconut milk
- 1/2 cup almond butter
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup brownie pieces (dairy free)
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 1 cup of dairy-free chocolate chips, 1 can of coconut milk, 1/2 cup of almond butter, 1/4 cup of maple syrup, 1 tsp of vanilla extract, and 1/2 cup of dairy-free brownie pieces.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the can of coconut milk, almond butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Use a whisk or electric mixer to blend these ingredients together until they are smooth and well combined.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the dairy-free chocolate chips. Heat them in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Be careful not to overheat the chocolate.
- Once the chocolate is melted, pour it into the mixing bowl with the coconut milk mixture. Stir well to incorporate the melted chocolate into the mixture until everything is evenly combined.
- Fold in the dairy-free brownie pieces gently into the chocolate mixture. Make sure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Transfer the brownie batter mixture into an ice cream maker. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for churning the ice cream until it reaches a soft-serve consistency, which usually takes about 10-15 minutes.
- If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and place it in the freezer. Stir the mixture every 30 minutes for about 2-3 hours to break up any ice crystals and achieve a creamy texture.
- Once the ice cream has reached your desired consistency, serve immediately for a soft-serve texture or transfer it back to the freezer for a firmer texture.
- Enjoy your delicious Dairy Free Brownie Batter Ice Cream in bowls or cones, and feel free to top it with additional brownie pieces or your favorite dairy-free toppings!
Tips
- Use high-quality dairy-free chocolate chips for the best flavor and smooth melting.
- Ensure your coconut milk is well-chilled before mixing for a creamier consistency.
- If you don't have an ice cream maker, don't worry! The freezer method works just as well with frequent stirring.
- For extra indulgence, make your own dairy-free brownies to use as mix-ins.
- Store the ice cream in an airtight container to prevent ice crystals from forming.
- Let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving for the perfect scoopable texture.
- Experiment with different dairy-free nut butters like cashew or sunflower seed butter for unique flavor variations.
