Tips & Tricks (5)
- Chill Your Base Thoroughly ❄️Refrigerate your milk and coconut milk mixture for at least 4 hours or overnight before churning to ensure faster freezing and creamier texture in your ice cream maker.
- Toast Your Cocoa Powder 🍫Lightly toast the cocoa powder in a dry pan for 1-2 minutes before adding to your base to deepen the chocolate flavor and remove any bitter notes.
- Macerate Cherries for Intense Flavor 🍒Toss fresh cherries with coconut sugar 30 minutes before mixing into your base to draw out their natural juices and amplify sweetness without adding extra liquid.
- Balance Fat Content with Full-Fat Coconut Milk 🥥Use the thick cream layer from canned full-fat coconut milk rather than shaking the can, as this higher fat content creates a luxuriously creamy mouthfeel without dairy.
- Prevent Ice Crystals with Cornstarch 🌾Add 1-2 tablespoons of cornstarch to your base before churning to absorb excess moisture and prevent grainy ice crystals from forming during freezing.
