  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Prepare the Chocolate Core:
  • Place a spatula in the center of a clean kitchen cloth
  • Wrap the cloth tightly around the spatula and twist to create a cylindrical shape

  • Melt the chocolate mixture using a double boiler method, stirring until smooth
  • Pour the melted chocolate into the hollow space in the twisted cloth
  • Refrigerate for 10 minutes until the chocolate hardens
  • Make the Mango Ice Cream Base:
  • Add mango pulp, cashews, condensed milk, coconut milk, and vanilla extract to a blender
  • Blend all ingredients until completely smooth and creamy
  • Taste and adjust sweetness if needed
  • Assemble the Ice Cream:
  • Remove the chocolate-filled cloth from the refrigerator
  • Carefully unwrap the cloth from the hardened chocolate
  • Place the chocolate cylinder in your container
  • Pour the mango mixture around and over the chocolate, filling all gaps
  • Tap the container gently on the counter to release air bubbles
  • Cover and freeze for 7-8 hours or overnight until firm
  • Serve:
  • Remove from freezer and let sit for 2-3 minutes before scooping
  • Scoop and enjoy the surprise chocolate center in every serving
