Homemade Ice Cream with Bitcoin Beans Cacao & Nibs

4–6 hrs8 ingredients

A simple no-churn homemade ice cream using just a bowl and a hand blender. Thick, fluffy, and loaded with Bitcoin Beans 100% cacao and cacao nibs — no ice cream maker needed.

Equipment

  • Small mixing bowl
  • Hand blender
  • Freezer
  • Plastic wrap or towel for covering the bowl

Ingredients

  • 4 egg yolks
  • 1 pint heavy cream (preferably A2 milk cream)
  • 1–2 tsp or tbsp honey
  • 1–2 tsp or tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 pinch salt flakes
  • Bitcoin Beans 100% cacao (to taste)
  • Cacao nibs (to taste)
  • Oshi Hodl Butter (optional, as a topping)

Method

  1. 01

    Separate the egg yolks and place them in a small mixing bowl.

  2. 02

    Pour in the pint of heavy cream. The cream is key for creating a thick and fluffy ice cream texture.

  3. 03

    Add honey and maple syrup (about 1 teaspoon to 1 tablespoon each, depending on sweetness).

  4. 04

    Add a small pinch of salt flakes.

  5. 05

    Blend the mixture with a hand blender for about 5 minutes, until it thickens.

  6. 06

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a towel and place it in the freezer for about 1 hour.

  7. 07

    Remove from the freezer and blend again for 1–2 minutes.

  8. 08

    Return to the freezer for another 1–2 hours.

  9. 09

    Repeat the freeze-and-blend cycle 1–2 more times to break up ice crystals and create a smoother texture.

  10. 10

    During the final blend, mix in the Bitcoin Beans 100% cacao and cacao nibs to taste.

  11. 11

    Freeze until firm.

  12. 12

    If frozen overnight, move the bowl to the refrigerator or counter for a short time before serving so it softens slightly and scoops easily.

Tips

  • The more freeze-and-blend cycles you do, the smoother and creamier the texture will be.

  • Add extra cacao nibs or a drizzle of honey on top when serving for extra flavor.

  • A2 milk cream gives a richer, more digestible base — worth seeking out if you can find it.
