I\u2019m not a fan of coffee. \u00a0At all. \u00a0But when hubby and I were in the kitchen late one evening thinking about new ice cream flavors to try (because we do that\u2026a lot\u2026), I\u2019m not sure why I thought of coffee. \u00a0Coffee with chocolate! \u00a0So, we came up with our own version of mocha ice cream.<\/p>\n

Every spoonful of this ice cream has the perfect balance of coffee and chocolate flavors. \u00a0Since it\u2019s egg-free, it\u2019s so light and refreshing, perfect for an after-dinner treat. \u00a0And a little more guilt-free, I like to think\u2026 \u00a0(Since it\u2019s already egg-free, feel free to make the vegan version by using non-dairy milk or cream!)<\/p>\n

Coffee and non-coffee drinkers alike will enjoy this one!<\/p>\n
