DIRECTIONS¶

1. Cut the dates into halves by their long side, and make sure they’re pitted and not spoiled. Coarsely chop them into pieces.
2. Soak the coconut flakes, cashews, and dates in the boiling water for at least 2 hours.
3. Then blend everything to a smooth paste.
4. Fill up with the ‘wet’ ingredients.
5. Weigh and mix dry ingredients, easiest by adding to a jar with a secure lid and shaking vigorously.
6. Pour into the tub and QUICKLY use an immersion blender on full speed to homogenize everything.
7. Let blender run until thickeners are properly hydrated, up to 1-2 min. Or blend again after waiting that time.
8. Add remaining ingredients (to the MAX line) and stir with a spoon.
9. Put on the lid, freeze for 24h, then spin as usual. Flatten any humps before that.
10. Process with RE-SPIN mode when not creamy enough after the first spin.
