    How to Prepare Mocha Caramel Ice Cream With Almonds and Dark Chocolate Chunks [Vegan]

    1. Soak cashews and macadamia nuts for 2 hours in filtered water. Drain and rinse.
    2. Add all ingredients to your blender (high-speed blenders work best). Blend on high until very smooth. Pour mixture into a container with a lid and place in the fridge for a couple of hours. You could leave it overnight too.
    3. Pour the chilled mixture through your ice cream maker, following the manufacturers instructions, adding in the optional chocolate, almonds, and extra caramel after about 10 minutes. After about 20 minutes or so, you’ll have soft serve textured ice cream.
    4. Ice cream is best eaten the same day or next day. It will lose its creamy texture after a couple of days in the freezer.
