Avocado Ice Cream

Place all the base ingredients into a food processor and run until smooth. Taste and adjust. Add the optional extras. If you are making mint avocado ice cream, leave the chocolate drizzle and cacao nibs for decorating!
Pour the ice cream into ice cream molds or into a container and freeze for about 4 hours. Serve and enjoy!
