Cacao Ice Cream

Cacao Ice Cream

Spring is the time to experiment with new ice cream flavors and recipes. This one is by far the best homemade chocolate ice cream you will ever prepare. It calls for 5 simple ingredients including organic Zen Spirit cacao powder which gives this recipe its unique bittersweet touch.

Cacao Ice Cream Serving

For a vegan option, you can replace heavy cream with some coconut cream and replace regular milk with your favorite plant-based milk (we definitely recommend unsweetened almond milk because of its neutral taste).

Add one teaspoon of vanilla extract for a little extra flavor and freeze your ice cream overnight for the best results. It can stand in the freezer up to 3 months which makes an excellent option for a delicious and refreshing summer dessert.

Cacao Ice Cream Cone

Sprinkle with some freshly grated chocolate before serving or optionally drizzle with fudge sauce or maple syrup.

Enjoy!
