VEGAN VANILLA ICE CREAM WITH DATE-COCOA SWIRL

Steps:

• In a high-speed blender, blend the soaked cashews, coconut milk, non-dairy milk, sweetener, vanilla bean, and salt until completely smooth. Pour mixture into a container and refrigerate the base for at least an hour, to allow the nut fats to thicken and the base to cool completely.
• Remove the base from the refrigerator and following manufacturer's instructions, place in your pre-chilled ice cream maker of choice and process.For the swirl, blend the almond butter, dates, cocoa, tamari, optional rum and water until a thick syrup forms. Set aside.
• Once the ice cream is completely processed, scoop the still soft ice cream into a flat, chilled baking dish, drizzle anout 1/2 C. of the syrup over, and gently fold in. Be sure that it is only gently folded to avoid being fully mixed. Place in the freezer until completely firm and you're ready to serve.
• After about 30 minutes, remove from the freezer and serve with remaining date cocoa syrup.

Steps:

• Place the cashews in a large bowl. Add enough room-temperature water to cover the cashews. Cover the bowl with a kitchen towel and soak overnight.
• Place the bowl of an ice cream machine in the freezer overnight.

VEGAN VANILLA ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Add the coconut milk, maple syrup and vanilla bean pod and seeds to a medium pot, and whisk to combine. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cover the pot, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Dissolve the arrowroot in 1 tablespoon water. Slowly drizzle it into the coconut milk mixture, whisking constantly. As soon as the mixture returns to a simmer, remove it from the heat and whisk in the vanilla extract. Transfer the mixture to a shallow bowl, remove the vanilla bean pod and set aside until the mixture stops steaming, then refrigerate until completely cool.
• Churn the ice cream according to your ice cream maker's instructions (this will take 20 to 30 minutes). Serve immediately, or freeze in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
• For vegan mint chocolate chip ice cream: As the ice cream churns, add 1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract (or more to taste). Once the mixture is ready, add 1/3 cup chopped dark chocolate, and continue churning until combined.
• For vegan strawberry ice cream: Chop 2 cups fresh strawberries, place them in a bowl and add 2 teaspoons each coconut sugar and maple syrup. Stir to combine. Set aside to macerate while the ice cream churns. You can also crush the strawberries slightly with a fork to create a chunky sauce. Once the ice cream is churned, pour in the strawberry mixture and churn until combined.
• For vegan almond butter swirl ice cream: As soon as the ice cream is churned, drizzle in 1/3 cup almond butter and continue churning for a few seconds to distribute.
