I’m here to tell you, dairy-free ice cream is easier to make than regular!įor homemade ice cream or frozen yogurt I prefer, and love, my Cuisinart ice cream maker. The starch is added to the milk base and when cooked on the stove top the milk mixture thickens and turns into what will be your custard. The other ingredient that proves to be very important when making dairy-free ice cream is arrowroot starch. If only coconut milk is used, the ice cream will have an intense fatty mouth-feel while an ice cream made with all almond milk will have an icy texture. To make a good dairy-free ice cream, this combination of milks is essential. With a faint green tint, thanks to fresh mint and matcha, it’s also pretty beautiful too.Īfter quite a few tests, I finally found the ideal ratio of coconut milk to almond milk for GREAT dairy-free ice cream. This dairy-free mint ice cream is so creamy and luscious, you’d never know there wasn’t cream in it.

chopped walnuts (bulks up these cookies and adds some texture).egg whites (essential for creating structure in this cookie).cocoa powder (obviously used for flavor but also acts somewhat like flour).confectioners’ sugar (not only does it add sugar, but it adds starch, which is essential).These are the easiest ice cream sandwiches ever.Īnyway, to make gluten-free chocolate cookies you need to employ a few key ingredients. Also, they only require 5-yes 5-ingredients. These flourless chocolate cookies are SO good.

This ensures they retain a crispy-chewy texture rather than just a crispy one. Through my testing I found that these ice cream sandwiches benefit from being assembled and frozen within a day or so of the cookies being baked.

I developed this recipe with my Dad’s birthday in mind-a hybrid of his favorite things-and they were a hit. These homemade ice cream sandwich cookies are so good, chewy, nutty, and incredibly easy to make-I swear, you can make them blindfolded. These dairy-free and gluten-free ice cream sandwiches are out-of-this-world! Chewy flourless chocolate cookies sandwich a luscious, creamy vegan mint ice cream made with a coconut and almond milk base.
