Vegan Tiramisu Nice Cream: A Decadent Dairy-Free Treat
Transform the traditional Italian dessert into a luscious, dairy-free indulgence with our Vegan Tiramisu Nice Cream recipe. This delightful frozen treat is perfect for anyone looking to enjoy the rich flavors of tiramisu without the usual dairy ingredients. Let’s dive into how you can whip up this simple yet satisfying dessert that is sure to impress vegans and non-vegans alike.
Ingredients
For the Nice Cream:
- 4 medium bananas (about 450 grams), sliced
- 4 oz vegan cream cheese
- 3 Tbsp extra concentrated coffee or coffee extract
For Decoration:
- 1 Tbsp cocoa powder, for sifting on top
Directions
- Preparation: Begin by peeling the bananas. Slice them into 1-inch pieces and place them in a freezer-safe container. Freeze the banana slices until they are completely solid, which should take about 8 hours.
- Blend: Once the bananas are fully frozen, take them out of the freezer. Place the frozen banana slices in a food processor or a high-powered blender. Add the vegan cream cheese and coffee extract. Blend the mixture until it achieves a smooth, creamy texture. Use a tamper if necessary to ensure an even blend.
- Taste Test: Give your nice cream a quick taste. If it’s not sweet enough for your liking, feel free to blend in your preferred sweetener until the desired sweetness is reached.
- Serve or Store: Serve the nice cream immediately for the best texture, akin to soft-serve ice cream. For a firmer consistency, transfer it to an airtight container and store it in the freezer until it’s firm enough to scoop.
- Finishing Touch: Just before serving, sift a tablespoon of cocoa powder over the top of the nice cream for that quintessential tiramisu finish.
