Servings 6

Ingredients
  

  • 3 (15oz) cans full-fat coconut milk
  • 3/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 2/3 cup almond flour
  • 3/4 cup natural creamy peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (I used dairy-free Enjoy Life brand)

Instructions
 

  • Shake up your cans of coconut milk before opening them. In a large bowl, combine the coconut milk, coconut sugar, and vanilla extract and whisk until combined.
  • Add the coconut milk mixture to your ice cream maker, and then follow the instructions for your specific ice cream machine.
  • While the ice cream is churning, make the cookie dough. In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, peanut butter, maple syrup, and chocolate chips. Use a wooden spoon to mix it all together. This may take a minute because the dough is pretty thick. Once you have it well incorporated, put the bowl in the fridge for about 20 minutes to help it firm up a bit. This will make it easier to roll it into balls.
  • Once the dough has chilled, it is time to roll it into balls. Just take a teaspoon measurer and scoop the dough into your hand. Gently roll it into a ball with your hands, and set aside. Repeat with the rest of the dough. Remember, you can make the balls as big or small as you want them to be, I just like to make them small so that you have more chunks of it throughout the ice cream.
  • Once the ice cream is done churning, and is nice and thick, transfer it to a container that you are going to store it in. I used a loaf pan for this, but you can use a casserole dish or large glass container with a lid. Once you transfer the ice cream, start slowly adding the dough balls and mix. Just add a handful at a time, and then mix it a few times, and then just repeat. Be gentle when you mix because you don't want to break up the dough too much.
  • You can also sprinkle in an extra handful of chocolate chips at this point too (this is not required). This gives a little extra texture throughout that is not just in the cookie dough.
  • Lastly, put the container into your freezer for a couple of hours before you serve.
  • When ready to serve, scoop into bowls and enjoy!
