Coconut-Avocado Ice Cream

SUBMITTED BY: THANISLIM  PHOTO BY: Allrecipes 

"My mum loves avocados and coconut milk. Since we have an avocado tree and coconut cream on hand, I tried making this fusion ice cream and it's heavenly. The avocado lends a lovely, appetizing color, and it has the nice aroma of coconut. Simply irresistible. Definitely something different to impress your guests."

INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1 cup coconut cream
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 2 (1/2 pound) avocados, peeled and pitted
  • 3/4 teaspoon lemon juice

What to Drink?

Cocktail Seabreeze

DIRECTIONS

  1. Puree milk, coconut cream, sugar, avocados, and lemon juice in a blender until smooth. Pour into a bowl, cover, and refrigerate for several hours until cold. Freeze in an ice cream machine according to manufacturer's directions, then freeze overnight.
  2. Allow ice cream to soften in refrigerator for 10 minutes before serving.

FOOTNOTE

  • If you don't have an ice cream machine, you can make this in the freezer. Just pour the puree into a dish and place it into the freezer. Freeze for about 2 to 3 hours, then mash it into a slush; repeat the freezing and mashing about 3 to 4 times so that the ice cream will be smooth. Finally, freeze overnight and serve as directed.
