This mint avocado ice cream is like a green dream come true! It's so creamy and refreshing, with just the right hint of mint. I love how the avocado adds a smooth texture, and the dark chocolate shavings on top are the perfect finishing touch. I could eat this every day!
In a blender, combine the canned coconut milk, avocados, water, sweetener, vanilla extract, pepermint extract, xanthan gum, and green food coloring (if using). Blend until smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.
Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness or mintiness according to your preference. Add more sweetener or mint extract if desired and blend until well combined.
Pour the blended mixture into a freezer-safe container. Smooth the top with a spatula for even freezing.
Place the container in the freezer and let the ice cream mixture freeze for at least 2-3 hours or until firm. For best results, stir the mixture every 15 minutes during the first 2 hours of freezing to prevent ice crystals from forming and to achieve a smoother texture.
Once the ice cream is fully frozen, remove it from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for a 10-15 minutes to soften slightly.
Scoop the Avocado Ice Cream into serving bowls or cones, and garnish with dark chocolate shavings.
