Everything you’ll need to make Halva Ice Cream:
  • 1 package of non-dairy whipped cream
  • 1 can of sweetened condensed milk (410g)
  • 1 can of tahini
  • 2 cans of fresh milk
  • 1 tbsp thyme honey
  • 1½ cups roasted and coarsely chopped almonds

Instructions:

  1. Use the empty can from the sweetened condensed milk as a measuring cup for the other ingredients.
  2. Spread the almonds on a baking tray and roast them in a preheated oven at 200°C (fan mode) on the middle rack for 10 minutes until golden brown.
  3. Let the almonds cool.
  4. In a mixer, beat the non-dairy whipped cream until it becomes fluffy (about 5-6 minutes).
  5. Add the sweetened condensed milk and continue beating until well combined.
  6. Add the tahini and honey while mixing.
  7. On low speed, slowly pour in the fresh milk and mix until the ice cream base is fully homogenized.
  8. If using an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into the machine. Towards the end of the churning process, add the roasted almonds.
  9. If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a wide metal bowl and place it in the freezer for 30 minutes.
  10. After 30 minutes, remove halva ice cream from the freezer and beat it again to add air and prevent the formation of ice crystals. Return it to the freezer for another 30 minutes.
  11. Repeat this process two more times to ensure a smooth texture.

Enjoy!
