Cashew Coconut Vanilla Bean Ice Cream

Round #2 of Ice cream madness!!! Well my first ice cream making experience went amazingly, I was so excited to make some more haha. I wanted to do something classic and simple, I loveee the taste of Vanilla, I always go for vanilla ice cream over chocolate! When I recently discovered "real" vanilla beans in the pod over christmas I couldn't believe that I had been missing out on it all these years! The extract just doesn't come close to the fragrant vanilla beans right from the pod. Next time your in the grocery store make sure you pick some up, they go great in all kinds of baking and smoothies!

- 1 Cup of soaked cashews ( soak overnight or at least 3 hrs)
