- 🍨 Shallow freezer-safe container
- 🥄 Spatula & ice cream scoop
-
1Combine the coconut milk: Pour the full can of full-fat coconut milk into a medium mixing bowl. Tip: Use full-fat for maximum creaminess!
-
2Add the cocoa powder: Add 3 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder. If you prefer a deeper, more intense chocolate flavor, you can use up to 4 tablespoons.
-
3Add the sweetener: Add 1 tablespoon of maple syrup or honey. Taste the mixture before freezing and add a second tablespoon if you prefer a sweeter ice cream.
-
4Add sea salt & whisk: Add a small pinch of sea salt to balance sweetness and intensify chocolate flavor. Whisk everything together until the mixture is completely smooth, glossy, and no cocoa lumps remain.
-
5Transfer & Freeze: Pour the chocolate coconut mixture into a shallow freezer-safe container. Smooth the surface with a spatula, cover, and place in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or overnight for a firmer texture.
-
6Softened & Scoop: Remove the ice cream from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for several minutes until slightly softened. Scoop into bowls or cones and serve immediately with optional toasted coconut or chocolate shavings!

- 🧂 Don't Skip the Salt: Even a tiny pinch helps intensify and balance the deep chocolate flavor.
- 🍯 Vegan Option: Use pure maple syrup instead of honey for a 100% vegan dessert.
- Shallow Container:** Freezing in a shallow dish helps the ice cream freeze evenly and makes scooping much easier.
- ⏱️ Let It Soften: Homemade no-churn ice cream lacks commercial stabilizers, so allow it to sit on the counter for 5–10 minutes before scooping.
