The smooth, melt-in-your-mouth texture of this ice cream comes from coconut milk, which also provides a more delicate sweetness than you'll find in other coconut ice creams. Bonus: It's vegan!



Makes 1 quart

Ingredients

  • 2 (13 1/2-ounce) cans coconut milk
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup plus 1 Tbsp. cocoa powder, measured then sifted
  • 1/4 cup corn syrup
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

Directions

Active time: 15 minutes
Total time: 5 1/4 hours

In a blender or food processor, combine all ingredients and puree until smooth. Transfer mixture to a container, cover, and refrigerate at least 1 hour, or up to overnight.

Freeze mixture in an ice cream machine according to manufacturer's instructions, being careful not to overchurn. Serve immediately or transfer to an airtight container and freeze until firm, about 4 hours.

Cocoa Colada Recipe

Haasarud has a trick to give this drink the same look of drizzled chocolate sauce atop a classic ice cream sundae: she swirls some of the sauce along the inside of a tall glass and then pours in the cocktail, which is a mixture of coconut cream, pineapple juice, rum and chocolate. You'll see zigzags of chocolate through the glass—just watch out for a brain freeze. (For speedy blender cleanup after you're done, Haasarud has another smart idea: fill the pitcher with hot water until it's 1/4 full, add a few drops of dishwasher detergent, run the blender on high for a few seconds, then rinse with fresh hot water).
