This Dairy-Free Rocky Road Ice Cream is a decadent treat perfect for these hot summer months. To make a non-AIP version, or if you have coconut allergies and/or do fine with dairy, substitute the coconut milk for equal parts milk, evaporated milk, and heavy cream. The carob can also be replaced with bittersweet chocolate for those of you that have already reintroduced it and the amount of honey should be adjusted to taste. Whether you like it bitter or sweet, this treat is sure to satisfy!
