Since when do you ever hear anyone say they are craving Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Ice Cream that is dairy-free, refined sugar-free and vegan?? But I’m sure you will once you try this one!
Be fair warned this ice cream may be vegan but it is still as addicting, full fat and richly creamy as your classic ice cream. Mind you, it’s currently a warm Sunday morning and I could go for a few spoonfuls of this ice cream, yes it’s 10am and yes I’m glad I no longer have anymore. This very ice cream is the very reason I am in need of a light detox refresh. So now I can only soothe my cravings with this post….
Where do I even begin with this ice cream! I feel guilty even calling it guilty ice cream, because I didn’t skimp on the sweet delicious flavor and richness of good ole ice cream. This vegan version is even creamier and sweeter all thanks to the dense sweetness of the coconut cream.

In all seriousness if you are dairy-free and really miss ice cream, this frozen bowl of wonder is a game life changer. Some dairy free coconut milk recipes require arrowroot starch to act as the eggs, but I decided to not use them in this version. And you don’t need it one bit! The peanut butter and full fat coconut milk already produces a thick creamy texture.

Summer’s almost over, friends, what are you waiting for? Make this ice cream now!
