These magnum ice cream bars passed the crucial test...<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

No, I'm serious. These bars have passed the ultimate test: dad's test.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You know, to be a successful food blogger you have to make recipes that won't work for you<\/span> (well, also), but for dozens or hundreds of other people<\/span>. Usually family, friends and partners have to \"sacrifice\" themselves and eat your experiments (what a sacrifice uh).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Same happened with these magnum ice creams bars: I made them for my boyfriend and he's been\u2026pleasantly surprised. He loved them!<\/strong> Same with my nephews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, my dad is a bit more skeptical and does not always find vegan recipes appealing.
Guess what though: he loved them too! He said they were absolutely scrumptious<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That's why I'm telling you they passed the ultimate test;)
I'm sure that if he approves them, then everyone will!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"How<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It's not always easy to make vegan ice cream that tastes good...
FAQs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This recipe was born because one day, two years ago, I was craving the famous Magnum Ice Creams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You all know though they\u2019re not the healthiest snack in the world.
Therefore, I surfed the Web and I found out so many recipes for vegan ice creams\/popsicles using the popular formula \u201csoaked cashews + coconut milk\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I immediately tried to develop my own recipe and... it was love at first bite! And second bite, and third and so on!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But making vegan ice cream is not always easy. So here are some questions answered:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What's vegan ice cream made of?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The classic vegan ice creams you'll find online are made of full fat coconut milk, some kind of sweetener, and often cashews.
Easy ingredients (not the cheapest though).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s the secret to vegan ice cream?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The super creamy full fat coconut milk.
As this post<\/a> from The Kitchn says, if you\u2019ll try to use other milks, the recipe won't work because it will be too watery.
You need those fats in order to eat the creaminess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Should you use a thickener?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Not in this recipe.
But if you want to thicken the mixture, try to add some cornstarch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can you use other nuts instead of cashews?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Try with almonds!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But...is vegan ice cream healthy?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It's healthier than the store-bought ones for sure.
This recipe just has 7 ingredients. Yes, they're high in fats, but they're pretty nutritious and energizing. So, I don't consider them a junk food!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
