Ingredients
- 2 cans Full-fat coconut milk
- 0.5 cup Cocoa powder
- 0.75 cup Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Vegan marshmallows
- 0.75 cup Almonds
- 0.5 cup Dark chocolate chips
Directions
Step 1
Chill the coconut milk cans in the refrigerator overnight to allow the cream to separate from the liquid.
Step 2
Once chilled, open the coconut milk cans and scoop out the solidified cream into a blender, discarding the liquid or reserving it for another use.
Step 3
Add cocoa powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt to the blender with the coconut cream.
Step 4
Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and fully combined.
Step 5
Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually about 20-30 minutes.
Step 6
While the ice cream is churning, roughly chop the vegan marshmallows and almonds into small pieces.
Step 7
In the last 5 minutes of churning, gradually add in the chopped marshmallows, chopped almonds, and chocolate chips to allow them to distribute evenly throughout the ice cream.
Step 8
Once churned, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours until firm.
Step 9
Allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping, if needed. Serve and enjoy your dairy-free rocky road ice cream!
