STEEMIT CULINARY CHALLENGE # 35: Raw Vegan Ice Cream Sandwich! Guiltless Dessert <3
This week challenge was Ice Cream and I knew exactly what to do:
A guiltless raw vegan ice cream sandwich :D
Sorry, there is nothing blue here except for the shirt I'm wearing <3
I love you all
For the cookies
2 C cashews
2 C almonds
1/2 cup maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla
1/3 C coconut oil
1 pinch salt
water as needed
we will break down the cashews and almonds to get a flour consistency. Or more texture if you decide. Then we add the rest of the ingredients and combine thoroughly, remember to add water if too heavy. We want a doughy consistency but we also want to protect our equipment.
Working with all these nuts can be dangerous for your equipment. So always add water or thin it out somehow when you think your equipment is having trouble to process them.
Once we get to the consistency we want we will spread them onto our paraplex papers to dehydrate for around 1 day.
For the Ice Cream
325 gr coconut meat
325 gr pre-soaked cashews
80 gr turbinado sugar (or honey if honey flavor)
40 gr coconut oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
Sorry I don't know what happened but I couldn't find the pictures :D anyway hahaha
It is the same as my mango cheesecake or chocolate pudding with out the flavors...
Or flavoring it how we decide.
We will blend everything in a high-speed blender until soft and creamy.
For the chocolate sauce
1 1/2 C olive oil (I used avocado)
2 C maple syrup
1 1/2 C cacao powder
pinch of vanilla
pinch of salt
We will blend all this until incorporated and thick, Oil will thicken it if too thick you can water it down a little bit or maple it down.
Wooot it feels good to be back.
I finally got a new phone hopefully you can tell the difference in this pictures.
Everything is going great with the baby news and the moving, new job woot I am doing a lot of stuff and even more. Making some extra money with FOREX
Thanks a lot for reading and taking a look :D
This was delicious!
I wish I could share with you ahahha

This looks incredible! Interesting how you used avocado oil in the chocolate sauce, I never would have though to do that :D I also like all the ingredients you've used. I've used that cocoa powder and avocado oil many times. Very good, healthy, organic products :)
hahah yeah you know. There is always options to make your own food healthier :D
I definitely do not settle for using bad quality ingredients :) Thanks for noticing it hahah It comes pricey sometimes and it can not be done but if possible. Quality over anything!
Your own body will thank you :)

Couldn't agree more! :)
Wow, it looks delicious
It is one of my favorite desserts, They are so gooood ahaha :D
Oooh I haven't had an ice cream sandwich since I was a child... great to see a homemade one! As always I love your choice of ingredients, good quality and good for health. Those cookies sound fantastic and I imagine work really nicely alongside the ice cream. And you even made your own chocolate sauce which is a lovely touch :-) Normally those missing photos would be essential for an acceptable entry, but actually from looking at your photos your ice cream definitely looks homemade, so I believe you haha!!! If I could just ask you to add in a line about freezing it once you'd blended all the ingredients... as you forgot to mention that bit! Good luck @tioluis
true! I know it was a bummer I couldn't find them and you must know. Raw vegan food is quite a lot of work so I definitely didn't feel like making a 2nd batch hahaha was not needed. those nuts get expensive :D
Thanks for taking me in. I will remember next time <3
Have a great day
No worries @tioluis, I too wouldn't have wanted to make a second batch! Never mind, at least you got to eat that great looking ice cream sarnie! There are a few adjustments to the rules, you may want to take a look as I've just put up the new post :-)
Beautiful, I will :)
Yammmm! It reminds me of my no bake vegan cheesecake that I made few days ago. I'm sure your vegan ice cream is delish :-)
mmmm is it like a frozen one? I love the cheezecake we make. mmmm the mocca or the lemon
Yes, it was frozen! Mocca and lemon sound very good :-)
Lovely @kingjan
Thank you
A healthy alternative to traditional ice cream sandwiches for summer! Sweet, soft, chewy and deliciously nutty cookies with an exotic coconut-vanilla flavor of ice cream and vegan chocolate syrup. Perfect combination @tioluis !Good luck!
Rouketas not even I could have explained that in a more delicious way. Thanks a lot and yup that is exactly what it is :D
Thanks
Thanks for the share @tioluis! This looks awesome! Will have a try! Upped and resteemed!
Hey thanks a lot :D yeah give it a try. It is amazing at least just the chocolate sauce :D and throw it over fruit hahaha over frozen bananas mmmm

I'm sure it will look even better :D <3
