Ann's Almond Chocolate Ice Cream Dairy Free Recipe

Indulge in this creamy, dreamy dairy-free almond chocolate ice cream! Made with homemade almond horchata (recipe inspiration from Zaar!), this decadent dessert is perfect for lactose-intolerant individuals and almond lovers alike. The rich almond flavor shines through in every bite. Using sweetened almond milk (like recipes #230449 or #229086) ensures the perfect sweetness without added sugar. For a luxuriously smooth texture, be sure to thoroughly strain your almond horchata. A slightly textured result is acceptable if you prefer.

How to Make Ann's Almond Chocolate Ice Cream Dairy Free

  1. Make almond horchata according to your preferred recipe (e.g., Zaar recipes #230449 or #229086). Ensure it's well-strained for a smooth ice cream.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the almond horchata, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and a small amount of the almond horchata to create a smooth slurry.
  4. Gradually add the cornstarch slurry to the main mixture, whisking constantly to prevent lumps.
  5. Pour the mixture into a saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon (about 5-7 minutes).
  6. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool completely. Stir occasionally to prevent a skin from forming.
  7. Once cooled, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  8. Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2-3 hours to allow it to firm up completely before scooping and serving.
