Ingredients

  • ¾ cup cocoa powder, sifted
  • ⅔ cup granulated sugar
  • ⅓ cup packed light brown sugar
  • Pinch sea salt
  • 2 cans (13.5 ounce each) coconut milk (do not use "lite")
  • 1½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Preparation

  1. Whisk all ingredients together very well until there are no clumps (you can use a blender on low speed, or a hand blender, to be sure).
  2. Chill for a minimum of 1 hour, or up to overnight.
  3. Turn the Cuisinart® Ice Cream Maker on; pour the mixture into the frozen freezer bowl and let mix until thickened, about 30 to 35 minutes.
  4. The ice cream will have a soft, creamy texture. If a firmer consistency is desired, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and place in freezer for about 2 hours. Remove from freezer about 15 minutes before serving.
