Coconut Berry Ice-cream goodness

Christened my new ice-cream maker last night, best present ever! 
I made a delicious, high protein, sugar free and mostly dairy free ice cream which keeps beckoning me from the freezer despite the chilly temperature outside, twas simply irresistible. 
So here's how it went:


Ingredients:


2 whole organic eggs
1 can coconut milk (I used Spiral Foods organic light)
1.5- 2 cups organic frozen raspberries
1 scoop chocolate protein powder
1 tsp cacao ( I actually used a spoonful of Miessence Berry Radical powder)
1 tsp honey
1 serve sweetener (I used 1 sachet of Natvia)
1 shake organic cinnamon


I put all ingredients into the food processor, pulsed and blended until smooth. I then added all to my new ice-cream maker, and ran it for about 10-15 minutes. You can run it longer if you prefer a harder consistency. I like a soft serve style texture. Eat immediately with extra chocolate powder and/or strawberries. You could also serve with chopped dark chocolate and nuts for texture. Put the leftovers into the freezer for later (if you can resist!) 
If you don't have an ice-cream maker I'm sure putting the pureed mixture into the freezer would still produce a heavenly result.
