This dairy free creamy Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream is the perfect combination of fresh mint and chocolate that is sure to cool you right off this summer.
What better way to celebrate summer than with a big bowl of homemade ice-cream! This week were kicking things off with a whole week of ice-cream, yes you heard that right! It’s ice-cream week. Could this day get any better?
I have 5 fun, dairy-free, gluten-free and processed sugar free flavours of ice-cream coming your way all week long. That’s a lot of homemade ice-cream but there’s also a lot of summer left 😉 Plus, you can never have too much ice-cream, that’s just a silly thought.
My go to flavour of ice-cream has got to be the traditional Mint Chocolate Chip. When I first attempted this recipe I knew I had to create one with REAL fresh mint, and none off that artificial stuff or food dyes. In my opinion, Mint Chocolate Chip ice-cream shouldn’t be neon green, but just a soft shade of “mint” green – pun intended.
I cannot even begin to tell you how delicious and creamy this ice-cream recipe is. The combination of cashews blended up with coconut milk makes the best alternative to the traditional stuff. No one will be able to tell that it’s made without all of those no-good for you ingredients found in regular name brand ice-cream.
This mint chocolate chip ice-cream is made with no dairy so you can totally indulge without the upset stomach. Not to mention, it’s so healthy that you could eat it for breakfast on a hot summer day… coconut milk, cashews, avocado, honey and mint?! Sounds all good to me!
If you’re a mint chocolate chip ice-cream lover like me then definitely whip or “churn” up a batch of this stuff and you will be loving your life all summer long…or at least until the ice-cream runs out and you’ll have to make more.

I’d never say no to a mint chocolate chip ice cream!! Can the cashews be skipped, though, for nut free option?
Hiii! #snapchatfam btw… I would like to know, to measure the cashews, do you measure them before soaking them or after? and also, is there a measure in grams of how much avocado you used or with half of a regular avocado (around 100 gr) would be enough?… Thank you for this awesome recipes!!
Hey #snapchatfam! I measure the cashews before I soak them 🙂 For the avocado I just used half of a reg/large avocado. If you want you could use the whole thing if its a small one.
Mint chocolate chip ice cream was actually one of my favorite ice cream flavors as a kid! I loved the way my breath smelled afterwards 🙂 so happy this is completely dairy free, healthy and delicious! The ice cream looks just too creamy to be true!
This will def make your breath minty fresh since its made with REAL mint 😉
I can’t wait to try this!
