Ingredients:

1/4 cup rolled oats

1/3 cup nuts (cashews and almonds mix)

1/2 cup soft pitted dates (about 7–8)

1 cup makhanas (fox nuts)

2–3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder

2 to 2½ cups warm low-fat or skimmed milk

1 tsp instant coffee (optional – mix with 1 tsp lukewarm water or steep in milk for 10–15 minutes)


Optional: chopped dark chocolate pieces for added richness


Instructions: Soak the base:

Mix rolled oats, nuts, makhanas, and dates in warm milk. Soak them for 10–15 minutes to soften.


Blend it smooth:

Put everything (soaked ingredients and milk) into a blender.

Add cocoa powder and the coffee mixture (if using).


Blend until super smooth — this is the critical step for a creamy, ice-cream-like texture.


Optional upgrade

Choco chunks: Add some diced dark chocolate or cocoa nibs for texture and extra chocolatiness.


Freeze:

Pack mixture into a freezer-safe container.

Seal and freeze for 4–6 hours or until firm—optimal texture is achieved when stirred once after 2 hours to prevent iciness.


Serve & enjoy:

Softening permitted when left out at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with cocoa powder, crushed nuts, or nut butter drizzle!


Tips

For a vegan option, replace with plant-based milk (e.g., almond or oat).

Add less or more milk to get a thicker or lighter consistency.

You can lightly toast makhanas before soaking for a stronger flavor.
