Fudge Brownie Ice cream OMG! Yes, Yes, Yes! I needed this Ice cream so badly, especially because I have no desire to constantly buy it in the supermarket at mega overpriced prices. Who knows me, knows that I love the Ice cream of Ben&Jerrys love, however, I find the price really crass. If you consider that the “normal” ice cream from cow’s milk costs a whopping two euros less. Simply the madness, so I prefer to do it myself. Then I also know exactly what’s in it and can determine the sugar content myself. The Ice cream season is slowly starting and I can not wait to make many more Ice cream varieties to make. So it remains exciting.
Fudge Brownie Ice Cream aka Ben & Jerry’s
You may be asking yourself if the ice cream tastes the same as Ben & Jerry’s ice cream. The answer is NO. why? Because industrially produced ice cream always tastes a tad different, especially because different types of sugar and emulsifiers are used. The ingredient list at B&J is quite long, but very manageable for our homemade version. Honestly, I think that even made ice cream tastes a lot better.
Let’s start with the Brownie start, oat flour, gluten free flour mix , coconut blossom sugar, cocoa, Plant milk , nut butter, vanilla and salt. This is made into a fine dough and goes into the oven. For the ice cream we need Vegetable cream , plant milk, raw cane sugar, cashews, cocoa, vanilla and xanthan gum. Off into the mixer and straight into the ice cream maker. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, you can just freeze it as is. More about the methods below.
TIP: Xanthan gum is a natural binder that is also approved for organic foods. I always have it at home and especially our ice cream makes it really nice and creamy.
6 ingredients, a blender, an ice cream maker – the ice cream is ready
To make sure the ice cream really succeeds, there are a few things to keep in mind:
- Be sure the blender is powerful enough to process the cashews and the rest of the ingredients into a fine liquid. Personally, I use a Blendtec(advertising, unpaid) and am super happy with the result.
- The cashews should be soaked if the blender isn’t that good (I don’t soak them). Click here for instructions on how to properly soak cashews.
- The ice cream maker should be used if possible (a purchase is worthwhile), because only then the ice cream becomes really creamy. Of course, you can do it without, but the lack of “stirring” during freezing makes the ice cream more crystalline and not as creamy. You can help by stirring manually again and again during the freezing process. Birthday, Christmas, Name Day? Just get a good ice cream maker as a gift. I’ve linked you to my machine below.
TIP: I still have a tip, due to the Brownies extends the defrosting process a little. That’s why I recommend you allow some extra time. Not that the guests have to wait longer than planned.
Does the vegan ice cream taste like “normal” ice cream?
My answer is a resounding “YES” and from my personal point of view, it tastes even better because it is incredibly creamy and tastes so intensely of chocolate. The fudge brownie pieces make it super interesting and provide maximum ice cream enjoyment.
