  • 1 lb strawberries
  • 1 lemon
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • ½ can Nature’s Charm sweetened condensed coconut milk
  • 1 can Nature’s Charm oat or coconut whipping cream, chilled
  • 1 cup vegan cream cheese
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 box red velvet cake mix
  • 6 tbsp Aquafaba
  • ½ cup melted coconut oil or olive oil
Instructions
  1. Prepare Strawberry Puree:
  2. Mash the strawberries in a bowl with the sugar and juice from ½ lemon.
  3. optional: strain strawberry puree if you don't like the seeds in your smooth puree.
  4. Place pureed or mashed berries and in a saucepan over medium heat. Simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until reduced by ⅓.
  5. Refrigerate until fully chilled before adding to ice cream.
  6. Prepare Vanilla Ice Cream Base:
  7. Drain the liquid from the oat whipping cream. In a large mixing bowl, whip the thick oat whipping cream with the vegan cream cheese, condensed coconut milk, vanilla, and juice from ½ lemon.
  8. Mix in the strawberry puree. Spread the ice cream into a lined dish that’s ½ the size of your cookie sheet.
  9. Make the Red Velvet Layers:
  10. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Light spray a 13x9-inch pan with nonstick cooking spray. Line pan with parchment paper and spray again.
  11. Beat cake mix, aquafaba and oil in a large bowl with electric mixer until well blended. Dough will be thick and sticky. Spoon dough into prepared pan. Cover with plastic wrap and press dough evenly into pan, using plastic wrap to keep hands from sticking to dough. Remove plastic wrap and prick surface all over with fork (about 40 times) to prevent dough from rising too much.
  12. Bake for 10 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean. Cool in pan on wire rack.
  13. Assemble the Ice Cream Sandwiches:
  14. Cut the resultant cookie in half crosswise; Remove one half from pan. Spread ice cream evenly over cookie half remaining in pan. Top with second half; use foil to wrap up sandwich.
  15. Freeze at least 4 hours. Cut into 8-9 equal pieces. Wrap and freeze sandwiches until ready to serve.
