i will never buy store bought ice cream again.so good.
seriously,probably the best vegan vanilla ice cream i've had.thought maybe the vanilla softserve at blossoming lotus was better...it's a tough call,and it's been a while.
i can't wait to make other flavours.like chocolate chip cookie dough.and cherry chocolate chunk.and cheesecake ice cream with actual chunks of cheesecake.yes.
No-Ice Cream Maker Vanilla Bean Ice Cream Recipe
to make this,this is what i did:
3 cups sweetened mimiccreme
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 vanilla beans,scraped
a pinch sea salt
1.blend all thoroughly until very smooth in blender.
2.pour into ice cubes trays(i used 2.5)and freeze completely.
3.add cream mixture ice cubes back into blender and blend.a lot.until very smooth and creamy.stick blender in freezer about 2-3 hours.
4.it won't be completely frozen at this point,quite soft still.turn blender on again and whip/blend the mixture around until very smooth and creamy.will look like a super thick milkshake going round.
5.pour mixture into an airtight container(i used a plastic one that i bought something in bulk in once) and put in freezer.let freeze a lot.i left mine for about
6.5 hours and was good and frozen enough when i went to eat some.you can check earlier,but it might still be very soft.
this stuff is soo good.and it doesn't freeze rock solid-it freezes like good ice cream does,where if i apply a lot of pressure from the sides of the container i don't feel like my hand will break off.
i love you mimiccreme!
but do you think this might work as well with coconut milk/soy creamer?i might just try.

Oooh, creamy goodness!
omg!! Can I give you a kiss Evan?!! LOVE the NO ice cream maker recipe <333 you - yea, I wonder if it works well with coconut milk/even plain regular soy milk?!
Ooh, we have mimicreme at the co-op I go to now!
This looks awesome, I'll be trying this, most likely with coconut milk or soy creamer. Thanks for sharing the recipe, Evan!
Once I get my hands on this mimicreme I will definitely be trying ice cream, thanks!
I'm so glad I read this entry because I was considering buying an ice cream maker! This sounds like a much better alternative... on the wallet, anyway.
I need to try this....I had been leaning toward buying an ice cream maker but perhaps not. :)
BTW I've been reading your blog for a while and love it - I was recently asked to nominate some great bloggers for a Brillante Weblog award and I thought of you. When you have a chance, visit my blog for details. Thanks for doing what you do!
Sigh. We don't have mimicreme here. *weeps* Your ice cream looks delicious - you know it's good when you can see the vanilla bean in there.
I have to try this! I don't have mimicreme, but I have some oat cream and I've been wondering what to do with it!
Thanks for the info. I had not heard of MimicCreme before so I will have to order some and try that ice cream recipe.
This is a really excellent recipe. I'm definitely going to adjust this for Sugar Free so that it can be used by people who can't have sugar!
