Coconut milk ice cream served

Coconut Milk Ice Cream

Coconut milk ice cream is an excellent alternative to traditional dairy-based ice creams, particularly appreciated by lovers of tropical flavors. Coconut milk has been used in desserts in Asia and the Caribbean for centuries, as it naturally adds a sweet, rich, and creamy texture to dishes. The combination of coconut milk and coconut cream ensures the silky texture of this ice cream, which can be made with or without a machine. Shredded coconut adds extra flavor and texture, while vanilla extract enhances the natural sweetness. This ice cream is a perfect choice for those looking for a lactose-free or vegan alternative to classic ice creams. You can serve it on its own, or combined with various fruits and chocolate shavings to make it even more special!

    Preparation Steps

    1

    In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk, coconut cream, and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved. Do not boil.

    2

    Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and shredded coconut. Mix well to combine.

    3

    Allow the mixture to cool completely to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably longer, to chill thoroughly.

    4

    Pour the chilled ice cream base into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. If you don't have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and stir it every hour with a fork to prevent ice crystals from forming.

    5

    Place the ice cream in the freezer for at least 4 hours to harden completely.

    6

    Before serving, let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly, making it easier to scoop. Sprinkle with extra shredded coconut for garnish.
