Ingredients
Ice cream
2 cans full fat coconut milk
¼ cup almond milk
½ cup agave
1 tsp vanilla
Sandwiches
1 cup pecans
1 cup almond flour
1 batch almond pulp (from almond milk)
½ cup cacao powder
4 Tbsp coconut nectar
2 Tbsp coconut oil
pinch of salt
optional: red, white, and blue sprinkles for garnish
Directions
Step 1
To a mixing bowl add coconut milk, almond milk, agave, and vanilla and mix well. Transfer mixture into 2 ice cube trays and store in the freezer overnight.
Step 2
When ready, blend ice cubes in a high-speed blender (scraping down the sides of the blender as needed), and transfer the creamy mixture into square silicone molds. Place in freezer for at least 1 hour to firm up.
Step 3
While the ice cream is firming up, add pecans to a food processor and pulse until flour-like.
Step 4
Add almond flour, almond pulp, and cacao powder and pulse again until mixed.
Step 5
Add coconut nectar, coconut oil, and salt and continuously process again until dough-like. It should stick together!
Step 6
Transfer sandwich “dough” to a baking sheet, and flatten it out using a rolling pin (or the bottom of a flat glass).
Step 7
Using a square-shaped cookie cutter (same size as the square ice cream molds), cut into square shaped “cookies”. To make 4 complete ice cream sandwiches, cut 8.
Step 8
You may have to keep rolling out/flattening the mixture a few times to get 8. Transfer to freezer until ready to serve.
Step 9
When ready, remove ice cream from the molds and sandwich each square between two chocolate “cookies”. Dip each side in sprinkles and enjoy!
