Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cans (13.5 oz each) Full-fat coconut milk
- 1 cup Coconut cream
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Shredded unsweetened coconut
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Chill the cans of coconut milk in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight. This allows the cream to separate from the liquid.
Scoop the solid coconut cream from the top of the chilled coconut milk cans into a large mixing bowl. Discard the watery liquid or save it for another use, like smoothies.
Add the coconut cream, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, shredded unsweetened coconut, and salt to the bowl.
Using a hand mixer or whisk, beat the mixture until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions, roughly 20-25 minutes, until it reaches a thick, soft-serve consistency.
For a firmer texture, transfer the churned mixture to a lidded freezer-safe container and freeze for 3-4 hours or until solid.
Allow the dessert to sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping and serving.
Garnish with additional shredded coconut or toasted coconut flakes, if desired.
