Healthy Rocky Road Ice Cream

Dairy Free, refined sugar free!

This ice cream is ridiculous. 

It's so creamy, you wouldn't know it was dairy free. If you're not into coconuts, don't fret: the coconut flavor is totally hidden by all the chocolate. This is the perfect ice cream to fool a dairy-lover; plus, it is SO easy to go plastic free here! Coconut milk comes in cans; sugar, chocolate chips, and cacao powder can be purchased in bulk; eggs come in a carton (please don't buy the styrofoam or plastic ones). The marshmallows are the most challenging - however, there are recipes for homemade marshmallows... coming soon to a blog near you!

Ridiculously creamy! 
Ingredients: 
  • 2 cans full fat coconut milk
  • 3 tbsp cacao powder
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 3 egg yolks 
  • 6 tbsp maple syrup + 10 drops stevia (to taste)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
Method: 
  1. Heat 1 can of coconut milk with 3 tbsp cacao on stove and then pour over chocolate chips to melt and set aside. 
  2. Heat other can of coconut milk with maple syrup and stevia to simmer. 
  3. In a bowl, whisk egg yolks. Add 1/2 cup of warm coconut milk mixture into eggs and whisk. 
  4. Then pour egg - coconut milk mixture back into pot on the stove and stir consistently until mixture coats the back of a spoon or reaches 170F. 
  5. Add the coconut milk - cacao - chocolate chip mixture to the pot with the rest. 
  6. Pour mixture through strainer to get any cooked egg particles out. 
  7. Chill in a mason jar overnight. 
  8. Add to your ice cream maker and store in an airtight container in the freezer. 
  9. Yum!
