Ingredients

  • 1 large avocado
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon lemon or lime
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup condensed milk

Instructions

  • Cut avocados in half and remove pits. Using a spoon, scoop out the flesh, and add it to the food processor.
  • Then add ¼ teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon lime or lemon juice, ½ cup condensed milk and blend until smooth and no avocado chunks.
  • In a mixing bowl, add in whipping cream and using a hand mixer at medium speed, beat mixture until it begins to thicken, about 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Next gently fold in until there are no visible white streaks, making sure not to deflate the whipped cream
  • Transfer in a container, cover it with parchment paper, and freeze 6-8 hours.

Notes

  • Using lime or lemon helps the avocado not lose its color or oxidize.
  • Parchment paper on the entire surface of the ice cream will help prevent ice crystals from forming.
  • Do not overbeat the whipped cream because it will separate from the liquid and will turn into butter. 
  • To get silkier ice cream, the whipped cream needs to be light and airy.
