Yummy!!!! Instead of using coco powder, I used 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract (vegan). Delicious good for anytime of the day:)

You can make vegan ice cream out of just about anything. Coconut milk makes a nice base. So does almond milk or of course soy milk or rice milk. You can use any kind of nut, seed, or legume butter for flavor and to add some fat as well as more protein. I made some out of almond milk once and used almond butter. Recipes are all over the web - look for keywords such as vegan ice cream coconut milk to pick them up. Once you've read a few recipes, you'll get some ideas about how to tweak recipes based on dairy. My ice cream maker is broken, alas, but I was able to pour my concoction into 4 oz cups successfully for freezing. I used almond milk, almond butter, vanilla, and xylitol for sweetener. They weren't airy and had to wait a bit to thaw, but very tasty. I often freeze fruit shakes this way, with and without a vanilla protein shake mix. I'll use fruit juice and/or blended frozen fruit. Also have frozen the protein shakes made with almond milk or soy milk and the chocolate, strawberry, or coffee flavors of the protein mix. Actually, you can freeze canned fruit in cups and that's pretty tasty and can't get much lower workwise ... Oh, and if you do like bananas - you can just break a banana in half and put a popsicle stick in it before freezing. You can roll it around in things or dip in chocolate or whatever if you want at some point. And yes, you can just mash up the banana with a fork rather than running it through a blender or food processor first to make a banana-based non-dairy ice cream.

this icecream is fantastic - I added a little fruit juice so that everything whizzed easier. I've posted a link to my facebook page so my freinds can make it too.

I used Hersey's syrup in place of the cocoa powder (the canned variety is vegan) and it was really yummy. @Summer Mango or Strawberry might be good, any dense fruit would do the trick. :) Hope I helped.
