No Joe, you don’t have to churn the avocados before freezing them. Sometimes i don’t even freeze the avocado-milk-sugar mixture, i just eat it like a mousse. Adding whip cream is good too.

Joe, to be honest, I do this by feel. If I have x amount of avocadoes, I just start adding cream or milk and mash it up or blitz it and check the consistency. Try to err on the side of too much avocado, as that will give you the flavor component. If you are fond of the cream, go heavy on that. Taste and add more sugar if necessary…

what are the proportions to make the avocado popsicles? My mom was talking about avocado popsicles she had growing up.

Leaving the pit with the dish makes the guacamole stay green instead of a dark mash than can look unsavory.

Sabi nila, i tried it too..

Take 3-5 ripe (not over ripe) avocados and scoop meat into a bowl in medium sized chunks. Add say 1-2 chopped and seeded ripe tomatoes. Add juice of 2 dayaps or limes (strained, of course). Chop 2-3 nice sized fresh jalapenos (seeded if you don’t want too much heat) and add to dish. I recently found nice jalapenos at Rustans Rockwell herbs section, cool. Add a fistfull of chopped wansoy or cilantro then season very generously with salt and pepper. Most people overmash the avocado (yuck) and underseason their dish resulting in a bland mush that approaches bad baby food… enjoy! Oh, and make it about an hour or so before eating so flavors meld and heat develops. Gently mix ingredients rather than jostle. Serve with good chips like fresh tostitos…

When I was a wee one, I loved avocado ice pops. I loved the sensation of slurping down a cold, fruit-loaded popsicle and feel the combination of rich milk, avocado pulp and sharp shards of ice all mingling together. The ice provided the necessary crunch, contrasting with the soft mush of the mashed avocado. Ang sarap… :-)

Yup, that’s a White Mountain. It works really well and makes a nice amount of ice cream compared to the smaller machines. It was a gift and we love it.
