Ingredients

• 3 medium ripe avocados
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
• Pinch of salt

Preparation

Step 1

Slice avocados in half, remove pits, and scoop out the flesh into a blender or food processor. Add sugar, sour cream, heavy cream, lime juice, and salt. Blend until smooth.

Pour into an ice cream maker immediately* (to prevent browning) and freeze according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Place plastic or parchment over ice cream (to prevent ice crystals) and freeze until firm, at least 4 hours.

*If you don't want to make the ice cream immediately, freeze the ice cream base. When ready to use, thaw in the refrigerator and then follow directions for churning.
