Everybody loves eating ice-cream every now and then, and when you are following a ketogenic diet, it is a little bit hard to find keto-friendly ice-cream because of the ingredients and sugar added.
The sugar-free avocado based chocolate ice cream recipe is very easy to follow. It’s very delicious also which guarantees that your family won’t realize that it’s keto.
How To
Get your ingredients Ready. We use full fat coconut milk (or coconut cream) for this recipe, but you can replace it with heavy cream. First, remove the avocado seed and cut into small pieces.
Transfer the avocado into a blender along with other ingredients, except the chocolate chips.
Blend it well until you get a thick and smooth texture. Transfer this mixture to your ice-cream maker and follow the machine instructions.
Once done, bring the mixture to a container or a bowl, then fold chocolate chips in to mix it.
Finally, freeze the mixture in the freezer for an hour or until the desired consistency is achieved. Serve and enjoy!
