It’s Dairy Month! Make Some Creamy Avocado Ice Cream

A month before I had our twins, I received doctor’s orders to stay off my feet to delay their entry into this world as long as possible. We asked a young Filipino woman to come and stay with us for a time. She needed help and so did we. Medy taught us how to make an amazing typical Filipino avocado ice cream.

I just have to say: if properly made, avocado ice cream will not hardly taste like avocado. It will taste like velvety cream and slightly nutty, but the avocados must be absolutely ripe!
