1. Add coconut milk, sweetener, cocoa or carob powder, arrowroot, vanilla and salt in blender or food processor. Mix well.
2. Add mixture to ice cream maker and process following manufacturer’s instructions.
3. When mixture starts to thicken, add almonds and chocolate chips.
Notes:
1. Milks: You can, of course, substitute dairy or other milk alternatives as you like. Among the dairy alternatives, almond will be one of the better options to promote creaminess of the final product.
2. Sweeteners: I recommend using the healthiest option that you have available to you. Since I am on a completely sugar-free diet, I opted for alternative sweeteners and used a combination of xylitol and erythritol, which worked great. As a rule, I recommend stevia, honey or sucanat over and above these alternatives, but I seem to have a reaction to stevia ad can’t eat the others, so I am working through this issue as best I can. More on alternative sweeteners soon :-) .
3. Ice Cream Maker: I used the Cuisinart Ice Cream & Sorbet Maker, and it turned out great, but you really have to follow the directions with this machine. The bowl needs to be completely chilled in the freezer first, used immediately, and the mixture needs to be chilled. Otherwise, it’s super-soft serve city :-( .
4. I am still working on perfecting the creaminess of this ice cream, but the arrowroot certainly helped.
