3 INGREDIENT AVOCADO ICE CREAM


It's illegal for dessert to taste this gooooood! It is a sin to enjoy healthy dessert without a care in the world. I never knew healthy, somewhat, could be this indulgent! I have totally had mad respect for this simple Avocado fruit! Only 3 ingredients and you get the richest, smoothest, creamiest, outrageously delicious, out of this world... need I continue... most delicious, oh yeah, already said that, just beautiful. I am not kidding with all those words used to describe this Avocado Ice cream. Where have you been all my life? What have I been doing on this planet? Why hasn't anyone "woked" me yet? I think its the sugar rush talking right now, I gave it full control over my taste buds and all common sense. Ahem, get a hold of yourself girl! So for this recipe I wanted a few Avocado chunks in my ice cream so I mashed with a fork but you can totally puree until smooth. Another day for my #AvocadoAugust and of course ice cream could not miss! Cheers to the next recipe!
INGREDIENTS


2 Cups Whipping Cream (cold)
1 Cup Sweetened Condensed Milk (cold)
2 Avocados

METHOD

Pour cold whipping cream/ heavy cream into a bowl. It is important that the cream be very cold so that it can whip easily and also form the stiff peaks we want 


With an electric mixer on high speed start beating the whipping cream


When you start beating the cold whipping cream it will start to froth up as it begins to mix, keep beating


After a few minutes about 5-7 minutes the whipping cream will have formed soft stiff peaks. To know that the cream is whipped well, you should be able to turn the bowl upside down without spilling the cream


Pour the cold sweetened condensed milk into the whipped cream and carefully fold until combined. Do not over mix as we do not want to remove all the wonderful air bubbles that we whipped in


Once the whipped cream and the sweetened condensed milk has been well combined add in the mashed avocado


Carefully fold in the mashed avocado until completely mixed into the whipped cream mixture


The avocado should be evenly distributed since mine I wanted a chunky ice cream I did not mash completely so you can see bits of the avocado here and there 


Carefully pour the avocado ice cream into a preferably metal loaf pan but you can still use a plastic ice cream container


Spread the avocado ice cream evenly in the loaf pan and set in the fridge for a minimum 6 hours or overnight to freeze well. Once frozen well remove from the refrigerator and let it cool at room temperature for a few minutes to make it easier to scoop out



Every scoop, perfecto. Scoop up the delicious avocado ice cream and serve in individual bowls



You can choose to top up with nuts, chocolate sauce, honey or just do it justice and devour as it is, I won't judge, I promise


You know me, I love me some close up shots and it would be a very lethal injustice if I did not show you how this ice cream looked like up close and personal...just screaming, lick me!
