Time 8h15m

Yield 1 quart ice cream

Number Of Ingredients 5

12 ounces avocado meat, approximately 3 small to medium
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Peel and pit the avocados. Add the avocados, lemon juice, milk, and sugar to a blender and puree. Transfer the mixture to a medium mixing bowl, add the heavy cream and whisk to combine. Place the mixture into the refrigerator and chill until it reaches 40 degrees F or below, approximately 4 to 6 hours.
  • Process the mixture in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's directions. However, this mixture sets up very fast, so count on it taking only 5 to 10 minutes to process. For soft ice cream, serve immediately. If desired, place in freezer for 3 to 4 hours for firmer texture.

Time 4h35m

Yield 12 servings (1/2 cup each)

Number Of Ingredients 5

One 8-ounce avocado, halved, pitted and peeled
One 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
2 tablespoons lemon juice (from 1 lemon)
Pinch fine salt
2 cups cold heavy cream

Steps:

  • Chill the loaf pan in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  • Puree the avocado, milk, lemon juice and salt in a blender until smooth, about 1 minute; transfer to a large bowl.
  • Whip the cream in another large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until firm peaks form, about 2 minutes. With a rubber spatula, fold about 1 cup of the whipped cream into the avocado puree until combined. Fold the lightened mixture back into the whipped cream until well blended. Pour into the chilled loaf pan, and place in the freezer until firm, 4 hours or overnight.

BRAZILIAN AVOCADO CREAM

Pure ambrosia. Tinted a beautiful, pale-green, this South American dessert is irresistible on a hot summer's day. And since avocado is a fruit, and not a vegetable, it makes perfect sense to use it in this way. Enjoy! Cooking time refers to the time it takes to chill.

Time 4h10m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 large avocados
5 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (or lime juice)
3/4 cup superfine sugar (more or less to taste)
3/4 cup whipping cream
1/4-1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Peel, pit and roughly chop the avocado.
  • An easy way to remove the pit: after halving the avocado, with a flick of the wrist, plunge a knife into the pit, then give a slight twist and remove.
  • Voila!
  • Place avocado flesh into a blender with the lemon or lime juice, and puree until smooth.
  • Transfer mixture to a bowl, and with an electric mixer, gradually blend in the sugar-- slowly, slowly does it.
  • Then add cream and salt (just a little salt at a time, tasting as you go, to avoid over-salting), and blend further until well mixed.
  • Distribute mixture between 6 stemmed glasses and chill at least 4 hours in the fridge.
  • (Freeze it if you wish, but it is nicer just chilled).
