Ingredients
- 2 large avocados
- 1 teaspoon freshly-squeeze lemon juice
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups heavy cream
Instructions
- Cut avocados in half and remove pits. Using a spoon, scoop out the flesh and drizzle with lemon juice.
- In a food processor or blender, combine avocado and condensed milk. Blend until smooth and no avocado chunks. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl.
- In another bowl, add heavy cream. Using a hand mixer at low speed, beat mixture until it begins to thicken. Increase speed to medium and continue to beat for about 8 to 10 minutes or until stiff peaks form.
- Add ⅓ of the whipped cream to the avocado bowl and gently fold in until there are no visible white streaks, making sure not to deflate the whipped cream. Repeat with another ⅓ of whipped cream and then the remaining ⅓ of the whipped cream.
- Transfer the mixture into a loaf tin. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing down film onto the surface of the mixture.
- Freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight until firm. Serve frozen.

Notes
- Drizzle the avocados with lemon juice to keep from browning.
- Start beating the cream at low speed to build smaller bubbles for a stable foam. When the mixture begins to thicken, increase the speed to medium and continue to beat until you reach stiff peaks.
- The lighter and airy the whipped cream, the silkier the ice cream. Add the blended avocados to the whipped cream in thirds and fold in gently with a flexible spatula to prevent the whipped cream from deflating.
