Chocolate Chunk Avocado Ice Cream

Keto Recipes > Keto Dessert Recipes

Eating avocados on a ketogenic diet is well known and done often. They’re full of fats, absolutely delicious, and normally pretty easy to find. Though, eating avocados for dessert is pretty unconventional. I’ve made avocado-lime sorbet before, but this time I wanted to bring a whole new flavor profile to the dish – and we use cocoa powder to mask the avocado’s taste without getting in the way of texture.

The decadently rich and sweet flavors of the ice cream are offset by the unsweetened baker’s chocolate. Every time you get a chunk in your ice cream, it offsets the sweet profile with some bitter for an extremely well rounded dessert. It’s not always about sweet, sweet, sweet, and I don’t want every spoonful to be a cloyingly sweet taste, so the balance works out perfectly.

I also want to give a BIG thanks to everyone that took their time to support the Keto Academy! I launched it yesterday, and I think that it’ll really help people lose the weight they want without them getting stressed and worrying about what they have to eat.

Do you think this looks good? Would you change the flavors? Let me know what you think in the comments below!
