Easy 5 Ingredient Vegan Chocolate Ice Cream

Only 5 ingredients stand between you and some delicious creamy (almost raw) vegan ice cream: Cashew nuts, cacao powder, vanilla extract and maple and agave syrups (vegan chocolate chips optional.) Even a picky 7-year old will love it. Enjoy!

p.s. The ice cream is 90% raw because maple syrup is typically processed with heat above 115F degrees.

p.s.s. Oops! Made a mistake when I answered a posted question below - must have been zoning out! I'm using the Blendtec blender. Although Vitamixs are great too! I wrote a review comparing the two on my blog here: http://thelabrawtory.com/2010/02/22/vitamix-vs-blendtec-showdown/

The ice cream maker is the Panasonic BH-941P Ice Cream Maker. It's very easy to use and compact. Just don't put too much "batter" in it because then it won't freeze sufficiently.
But I believe this model ice cream maker has been discontinued. :(

2 ripe avocados

This looks so good, I'm def going to try it. Just one question do the cashews need to be soaking for a certain amount of time?

[KaliLilla]

@dayami522

I usually soak over night. :)

Love the vid. I would like to make this dessert ASAP! Can you tell me what the name of that 'magic' ice cream maker contraption you used is called or where I can get it? It seemed so easy and not too large for storage. Thanks!

This is why she calls it a Raw Vegan ice-cream meaning no animal products.

Also meaning that it is a healthy substitute for ice-cream, because animal products are unhealthy.

This looks delicious. I've used Belgian dark chocolate truffles to make a great Philadelphia style ice cream. Thanks for a great video!

OMG I just finished making this and it is REALLY good! I have been searching for a good soy-less vegan ice cream, and this one hits the spot.

I used all maple syrup (rather 50-50 mayple/agave). You definitely need to have a high speed blender like you said, because I put it in a cheap food processor and it wasnt creamy at all (and was quite gritty from the cashews). After transferring it to my high-speed blender it made it pretty creamy :) THANKYOU!!! :D
