Common Questions
Do I need an ice cream maker?
Equipment needed: an ice cream machine, a blender, and containers to freeze the ice cream in.
I get a lot of questions about what to do if you don't have an ice cream machine. My answer is simple. Buy one. I'm not trying to be snarky but you really can't make homemade ice cream without an ice cream maker. I've had mine for 10 years and at only $40 it's one of the best kitchen purchases I've made.
If you really cannot buy an ice cream maker you can make this into popsicles. If you just pour the base for this dairy free chocolate ice cream into a bowl and freeze it you will end up with a solid mass. The ice cream machine incorporates air as it freezes fluffing it up.

Donna Bentkowski says
6/2/23-Can u tell me what the ingredients would be if i just wanted to make a dairy free only coffee version with out the chocolate . And can i use a powdered egg substitute?
Taryn says
1. Omit the cocoa powder and add 2 tablespoons instant coffee. Or more to taste.
2. A powdered egg substitute won't give it the same creaminess that egg yolks do.
lesa anderson says
Can I leave the eggs out or use egg white powder? Thank you!
Taryn says
The egg yolks make it rich and creamy. You can leave them out if you prefer. I have not tested this with egg white powder.
Kathy Bradford says
This recipe looks delicious!! I have an ice cream maker but not a ice cream machine. Is there a difference?
Trang says
I love this guilt free ice cream, also the instant coffee really enhances the chocolate flavor.
Jessica says
Loved this- I can have my ice cream and not feel guilty. Does not lack on flavor!
Megan says
How much coconut milk is in your can? I have 11 oz boxes on my shelf.
Taryn says
A standard can is 13.5 oz.
Heather says
How many cups is one serving?
Taryn says
About 1/2 a cup. This makes 3-4 pints and there are 12 servings.
monika says
Can you use 2 tsp Stevia Glycerite instead of the Glycerin and omit the 2/3 cups Trim Healthy Mama Gentle Sweet?
Taryn says
You can omit the glycerin but might need to let the ice cream thaw a bit before scooping. You can use any sweetener to taste.
