Pin It

Wow your friends with ice cream made from avocados. It is cool and refreshing, but not overly sweet.

Serves 6 to 8

Ingredients

  • * 1 to 2 fresh jalapeno peppers, minced (pull back on the seeds to cut some of the heat)
  • * shredded zest of 1 large lime
  • * juice from 2 of large limes
  • * 2 ripe, dark-skinned avocados, peeled and mashed
  • * 1/2 cup coconut milk
  • * 2 teaspoons sugar
  • * pinch salt
  • * 1 quart good-quality vanilla ice cream, softened
  • * 1/2 cup sweetened flake coconut
  • * zest of 1 large lime, finely grated (for garnish)

Method

  1. While the ice cream is softening up, mince the jalapeno's in the food processor with the lime juice and zest. Process well until the mixture is paste-like. Add the sugar, coconut, and avocados, and continue processing until the mixture is well-combined.
  2. Spoon the ice cream into a freezable container, and stir in the coconut milk (this will help to soften it up even more).
  3. Work in the avocado mixture, stirring until the ice cream turns a lovely shade of avocado green and seems evenly mixed.
  4. Freeze for a few hours or up to a week.
  5. Serve scooped into wine glasses.
  6. Top with flake coconut and sprinkles of lime zest.
