Ingredients

Matcha ice cream

  • 1 cup (165g) raw cashews, soaked in water overnight
  • 1⅓ cup (320g) coconut cream (this is the amount of cream I was able to get from my can of full fat coconut milk)
  • ½ cup +2 tablespoons (82.5g) sugar
  • teaspoon salt
  • tablespoons matcha powder

Magic shell

  • 7 oz (200g) bittersweet chocolate, melted
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil

Instructions

Matcha ice cream

  • Add all the ingredients into a high power blender, and blend until very smooth.
  • If using an ice cream machine, pour the filling into the machine (that's been chilled overnight) and churn for 25 minutes. Pour the matcha ice cream into a freezer safe container and freeze until firm.
  • If you're NOT using an ice cream machine, pour the filling into a bowl and place it in the freezer. Take it out every 30 to 40 minutes and use a hand mixer to beat the filling, and put it back in the freezer. Continue for about 3-5 hours, or until frozen.

Magic shell

  • Combine the coconut oil and melted chocolate and stir until the coconut oil is melted and smooth. Cool slightly and pour as much as you like on your ice cream.
