For best results, use full-fat, not “light,” coconut milk. Also, soaking the cashews overnight yields maximum creaminess, but you can soak them in near-boiling water for thirty minutes if you’re in a pinch. Blend the ice cream base on the highest speed to get the mixture very fluffy and smooth. The ice cream will be soft-serve right out of the ice cream maker, while freezing it will firm it up. If it gets too hard to serve, just leave it on the counter for few minutes to soften before scooping.
Serve this dessert in ramekins and sprinkled with high-quality cinnamon for an easy treat!
