Avocado Ice Cream

Ingredients
2 Ripe Avocados (peeled and stoned)
150ml Single Cream
300ml Double Cream
75g Caster Sugar
1 Lemon (juiced)
50g Toasted Chopped Almonds (optional, if you cant get them toasted just fry in a dry frying pan)

Equipment
A Blender/Food Processor
1 Mixing Bowl
1 Balloon Whisk
1 Spatula
1 Old Ice Cream Tub

The Good Bit
  1. Blend together the single cream and avocado until smooth. Whisk the double cream until it forms soft peaks.
  2. Fold the sugar, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and the avocado mixture (and the nuts if using) into the double cream with the spatula.
  3. Whack this lot into your old ice cream tub, cover and freeze. Move to the fridge 30mins before you want to serve.
