Recipe Tips

  • For a creamier ice cream, use full-fat coconut milk and heavy cream.
  • If you prefer a stronger coconut flavor, add more shredded coconut to the ice cream mixture.
  • If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can still make this recipe. After step 4, transfer the mixture to a freezer-safe container and freeze for 30 minutes. Remove from the freezer and whisk the mixture vigorously. Repeat this process every 30 minutes until the ice cream is thick and creamy.
  • For a fun twist, serve the ice cream in coconut shells!
