If you’ve got a sweet tooth like mine, this rich and creamy dessert is a must-try. Just 4-5 ingredients are needed and you can have it ready in a couple of hours. Most importantly, you won’t even require an ice cream maker! There are different versions of chocolate coconut ice cream (dairy-free, organic/plant-based, etc.) that people enjoy in different parts of the world.

For this one, I’ve used organic coconut milk ice cream and unsweetened dark chocolate along with blueberries and raspberries. Also, it’s a healthier version because you’ll replace cow milk with coconut milk and sugar with monk fruit syrup. Isn’t that great?The procedure is quite simple but the result is sure to satisfy your cravings.

You can make this chocolate coconut ice cream cake in no time. Follow the steps below to enjoy a cold, creamy, and yummy dessert.

Ingredients 

• Organic coconut milk ice cream
• 1 bar of organic dark chocolate (unsweetened) to decorate
• Gluten/sugar-free cookies (crumbled)
• Blueberries
• Raspberries
• Cocoa powder

Assembling the Ice Cream Cake

1. Cover a mini mold with chemical-free plastic on the bottom.
2. Add crumble protein bars or gluten/sugar-free cookies to the bottom of the pan.
3. Fill the mold with coconut ice cream
4. Sprinkle extra pieces of crumble cookies or grated chocolate to cover the coconut milk ice cream completely.

Tip: You can add 2 different flavors of ice cream to make the cake more delicious! Put it into a freezer.

Preparing the Chocolate Cake Wall

1. Cut a piece of baking paper according to the circumference of the cake.
2. Place it into a flat counter on top of another baking paper sheet.
3. Melt half a 40 g dark chocolate bar in the microwave for 90 seconds. Make sure to stir it after every 30 seconds.
4. Now use a  spoon or brush to paint the strip of baking paper or acetate with the melted chocolate until it is covered completely.
5. Immediately place this strip around the ice cream cake.

Note: You have to be extra careful here! The ends of the baking paper with the melted chocolate shouldn’t be close together. Make sure to leave some space between both ends for easy peeling. Bring it to the freezer until the chocolate is hard.

Serving

1. Take out the cake after 1-2 hours and carefully remove the baking paper sheet. You will have a nice wall of chocolate around the ice cream cake.
2. Decorate with fresh fruit, melted chocolate, and cocoa powder.

How This Recipe Benefits Your Thyroid

This dessert combines healthy fats, antioxidants, and nutrients that support thyroid function, while also being enjoyable and delicious! Here’s how this recipe benefits your thyroid:

1. Organic Coconut Milk Ice Cream

Coconut milk is a good source of healthy fats, including medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which support metabolism and may improve thyroid function. MCTs provide quick energy and may help regulate weight, which is often impacted by thyroid issues.

2. Organic Dark Chocolate (Unsweetened)

Dark chocolate, especially unsweetened varieties, is rich in antioxidants, such as flavonoids, which help reduce oxidative stress and inflammation. This supports overall thyroid health by protecting the thyroid gland from damage caused by free radicals.

3. Gluten/Sugar-Free Cookies (Crumble)

Gluten-free cookies made with low-glycemic ingredients help avoid blood sugar spikes, which can affect thyroid function. Reducing refined sugars and gluten helps maintain balanced hormone levels and supports optimal thyroid function.

4. Blueberries

Blueberries are packed with antioxidants, particularly vitamin C, which supports immune function and helps reduce inflammation, benefiting thyroid health. They also provide fiber, which aids in digestion and hormone balance.

5. Raspberries

Like blueberries, raspberries are rich in antioxidants, including vitamin C and fiber, which promote a healthy gut and immune system. A healthy gut is essential for thyroid hormone absorption and regulation.

6. Cocoa Powder

Cocoa powder is high in magnesium, an essential mineral for thyroid health. Magnesium helps regulate thyroid hormones and supports enzyme function, which is crucial for the conversion of T4 to the active T3 form.
