I didn't know either but since Lina told me about it I am never going to waste a drop of chickpea water again.

VEGAN RAW CHOCOLATE CHERRY "ICE CREAM"



Vegan Raw Chocolate Cherry

I got this recipe off of a website, and it is AMAZING. I am not a vegan or a raw foodie, just looking for healthy alternatives. I use my Vitamix to make this, but you could probably use any blender or food processor. You can also add chocolate chips for texture.

VEGAN AQUAFABA CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM RECIPE BY TASTY



Vegan Aquafaba Chocolate Ice Cream Recipe by Tasty image

Aquafaba is a fantastic vegan substitute for eggs. Whipped aquafaba in this recipe adds volume the same way whipped egg whites would, resulting in a light and fluffy ice cream. This ice cream recipe is great for anyone who doesn't consume dairy, but still wants a scoop of a classic chocolate treat.

Time 6h20m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

¼ cup coconut oil
1 cup full-fat coconut milk, canned
¼ cup cocoa powder
¾ cup aquafaba, from 1 15-ounce (400 g) can of chickpeas
½ teaspoon cream of tartar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup powdered sugar, plus 2 tablespoons

Steps:

  • In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine the coconut oil and coconut milk. Microwave for 45 seconds, until the coconut oil is melted.
  • Whisk the cocoa powder into the coconut milk mixture until smooth. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine the aquafaba, cream of tartar, and vanilla. Using an electric hand mixer, beat the mixture for 6 minutes until light, fluffy, and tripled in volume.
  • Sift in the powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating to incorporate between each addition, about 3 minutes. The mixture should be shiny and have a satin-like appearance.
  • Carefully fold the chocolate coconut mixture, ¼ cup (30 G) at a time, into the whipped aquafaba. Do not overmix or you will lose volume.
  • Pour the mixture into a 1 ¾-quart loaf pan.
  • Freeze uncovered for at least 6 hours, up to overnight. The ice cream will keep in the freezer, covered, for 2 weeks.
  • Enjoy!

DECADENT VEGAN CHOCOLATE ICE CREAM



Decadent Vegan Chocolate Ice Cream image

The trouble with most vegan ice creams is texture and flavor. If you use just coconut milk, you end up with something that tastes watery. The coconut cream (not cream of coconut) is coconut milk with twice the fat, which helps in the flavor and texture departments. The corn syrup helps smooth out the texture as well. You end up with a delicious, rich, velvety chocolate ice cream that will have people wondering if it really is vegan or not.
