Healthy Berries & Cream “Ice Cream” Bark

(no added sugar, vegan, gluten free)

Red, white, and BEAUTIFUL! This is the yummiest, easiest dessert idea ever! It’s perfect for the summertime but I happen to think it would particularly make the sweetest Fourth of July treat. It’s refreshing, delicious, and just so happens to be super kid friendly. This bark is a great way to satisfy that craving for ice cream without all that extra sugar. 
The secret to this recipe is unsweetened coconut cream. It’s whipped up with a little vanilla, some sugar free sweetener, then it’s  topped with gorgeous fresh berries, popped in the freezer and BAM! Summertime dessert perfection is served.  It’s crazy how much this tastes exactly like ice cream! My favorite are the bites with the strawberry in it. It’s a little sweet, a little tart – ugh! So good!

Ingredients:

 
3, 13.5 oz cans of unsweetened Coconut Cream
1 + 1/2 tablespoons vanilla extract
2 tablespoons stevia (or any granulated sugar free sweetener of choice)
 
Fresh strawberries & blueberries

Instructions:

 

1. Line a lasagna pan with parchment paper and set aside. Slice desired amount of strawberries, I used around 7-8.

2. Drain all the liquid from the coconut, saving the thick cream. Place the coconut cream into a medium mixing bowl. Add the vanilla extract and the stevia, and beat on high with an electric hand mixer for about 3-5 minutes to aerate and blend thoroughly.

3. Pour the mixture into the parchment lined pan and very carefully and gently place the strawberries and blueberries into the cream. Place into the freezer and allow to freeze overnight. 

4. When ready to serve, remove the bark by lifting the parchment out of the pan and cut with a knife into desired pieces. Serve immediately.
