CHERRY VANILLA ICE CREAM

We created this ice cream recipe just for National Ice Cream Day on July 16th. It also happens to be cherry season and this recipe is as easy as it gets!
Throw *most* of the ingredients into a blender and then freeze.

I’d love to see your photos of your creations, let me know how it goes!

Ingredients:

1 can coconut milk
1C fresh coconut meat
.25C cashews soaked in water
6 medjool dates

Method:

1. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper.

2. Prep the coconut milk by putting it in the fridge. Once hardened, use the cream part only for the recipe.

4. Place all of the ingredients except for the .25C chopped cherries into the blender.
