I’m exploring dairy- and citrus-free dessert options for when boyfriend’s dad visits next month. My first experiment, avocado ice cream made with coconut milk, turned out to be a winner. I used David Lebovitz’s recipe, which struck just the right balance between the two really rich flavors of avocado and coconut, resulting in a light but creamy dessert that is perfect for summer. The bowl below was scooped straight from the ice cream maker, which is why it started to melt so quickly.
