If there is one dessert that screams “summer,” it’s ice cream.This simple, gluten-free, and vegan ice cream recipe can be whipped up in a snap. Three simple ingredients (coconut milk, a sweetener of your choice and vanilla extract) form the creamy base for your favorite flavorings–we happen to love chocolate chip mint.

Tip: Make sure your ice cream base is chilled before processing in your ice cream maker. (No ice cream maker? Try this trick)
