Ingredients
  

  • ¾ cup sweetpotato cooked and mashed
  • 13 ½ ounces lite canned coconut milk 1 can, room temperature, shaken
  • 5.75 ounces chocolate chips (½ bag milk chocolate chips)
  • ½ tbsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp salt

Instructions
 

  • Add the mashed sweetpotato, coconut milk, vanilla, and salt to your favorite blender.
  • Following the instructions on the bag of chocolate chips, melt the chocolate chips. I used the microwave method.  *Be sure not to overcook.
  • Add the melted chocolate chips to the blender.
  • Blend until smooth and mixed thoroughly.
  • Pour the sweetpotato/chocolate mixture into a loaf pan.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and place in the freezer.
  • Every 30 - 45 minutes stir the chocolate mixture, the edges will start to freeze first and you will want to stir that in to ensure an even creamy texture. Do this at least 3 times.
  • Your ice cream will be ready to enjoy in about 3 - 4 hours. If you freeze your homemade ice cream overnight you will need to allow it to thaw on the counter for about 5 mins to ensure it will be soft enough to scoop.

Notes

We topped it with extra chocolate chips. Other toppings could be chocolate syrup, caramel sauce, fresh fruit, and/or whipped topping.
