Recipe by: What Great Grandma Ate

Ingredients

  • 11 Natural Delights Pitted Medjool Dates
  • 2 cans full-fat coconut milk (14 oz each)
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Preparation

  1. Make sure your ice cream maker bowl has been frozen for at least 12 hours.
  2. Place the Medjool dates in a bowl and cover with hot water for 10 minutes.
  3. Drain and place in a blender or food processor. Add coconut milk, peanut butter, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and sea salt, and blend until smooth.
  4. Pour into your ice cream maker and churn until thick and creamy, about 20 minutes.
  5. Add chocolate chips, if using, and churn for a few more minutes to incorporate evenly.
  6. You can enjoy immediately for a soft serve texture, or freeze in a freezer-safe container like a loaf pan or a reusable ice cream container for at least 3-4 hours. Sprinkle with more chocolate chips, if you want.
