My sweet tooth runneth over again. I can’t help it (though I don’t know why–weak will?). It’s just so hot out (it’s still in the high 90’s here in Texas) and I can’t stop thinking about ice cream and the sweet things that, in my mind, should be mixed with it. Take this recipe for Vegan Cake Batter Ice Cream. I really just wanted to eat some cake batter (sweet tooth alert!), but it’s hot, so I wanted ice cream. Then I turned it pink and added sprinkles. What is wrong with me?!
Ingredients for Vegan Cake Batter Ice Cream
The Ice Cream
- 4 cans coconut milk
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 4 tspn vanilla extract
- 12 drops red food coloring
- 2 drops blue food coloring
- 2 tblspn sprinkles (yeah, they totally make this killer-cute, so do it)
The Cake Batter
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 tspn salt
How to Make Vegan Cake Batter Ice Cream
- To make the ice cream, open your coconut milk cans and scoop the thick cream part into a bowl, trying to get as little of the coconut water as possible. Discard coconut water or just set aside for chugging later, whatever.
- Add the powdered sugar, food coloring and vanilla to the coconut cream.
- Mix on high 2-3 minutes with a hand mixer until it becomes stiff and fluffy.
- At this point, I stuck the ice cream in the freezer, in the bowl as-is, then started working on my cake batter. But the thing is, I wouldn’t leave it in there for longer than an hour. So, if you have to leave it and come back, that’s fine, but just come back SOON.
- To make the cake batter, throw everything into a bowl, mix on high with the hand mixer for about 2 minutes, until it is smooth.
- Remove ice cream from freezer and combine cake batter, sprinkles and ice cream in a single bowl.
- Mix on high with the hand mixer for about 2 minutes until mixture is thoroughly mixed (I’m playing the “meow” game with “mix”–can you tell?!)
- Place mixture in the freezer for approximately 2 hours.
- Devour, my lovlies, devour and enjoy.
