Ingredients

  • 15 ounces coconut milk - 1 can full fat, usually between 17% and 22% fat
  • 2 ½ tablespoons Dutch-process cocoa powder - unsweetened
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 24 ounces non dairy yogurt alternative - plain
  • ½ cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, beat the coconut milk until completely smooth.
  • Add the cocoa powder, maple syrup, salt and vanilla extract and mix until smooth.
  • Add all of the plain yogurt alternative and mix until well blended.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Pour into a shallow casserole dish.
  • I used an 8" x 10" size.
  • Carefully put the dish inside a freezer bag and chill for about 2 hours. Remove from the freezer and mix again. It will be partially frozen. You are just adding air into the mix.
  • Put back in until frozen.
  • Remove from the freezer.
  • Take a strong dinner fork and start scraping/shaving across the top so that it starts to crumble up into chunks.
  • You may need to let it set for about 5 to 10 minutes if the granita is too hard.
  • That is it.
  • Eat now or pack into hard sided freezer safe glass containers and enjoy whenever you want.
