Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Make the cone base: Combine almond flour, melted butter and a bit of sweetener. Press down in silicone mold or liner and bake until golden. Let them cool fully.
- Whip the cream: In a large chilled bowl, whip heavy cream with erythritol and vanilla until fluffy. Gently fold in almond milk to keep it airy.
- Freeze the ice cream: Spoon the cream mix into the prepared cones or molds. Freeze for 2-3 hours or until firm.
- Melt the chocolate: In a bowl, melt sugar-free chocolate together with coconut oil. Stir over low heat until smooth and shiny.
- Cover with chocolate: If you’d like to dip your cones in the chocolate coating, do it when cones are frozen; if you want to drape the chocolate like shown or serve atop scoops, you can do it when the chocolate is thinner (even warm, although room temperature will be plenty cool).
- Add the nuts: Sprinkle chopped peanuts or almonds while the chocolate is still soft.
- Serve: Let sit at room temperature for a few minutes before enjoying.
Notes
- For whipping cream best results are obtained if you chill the mixing bowl.
- Mold them in silicone for super easy ones to pop out.
- For more flavour toast the nuts little.
- For added creaminess, bolt on a yolk-based custard base.
- Keep in an airtight container in the freezer to avoid freezer burn.
