Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Coconut milk
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Sweetened shredded coconut
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk, heavy cream, and granulated sugar.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir the mixture constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved. This should take about 5 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt. Let the mixture cool to room temperature.
Once cooled, pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This usually takes about 20-30 minutes.
Five minutes before the churning is finished, add the sweetened shredded coconut to the ice cream maker to incorporate it evenly into the ice cream.
Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours or until firm.
Serve the coconut ice cream in bowls or cones and enjoy a refreshing tropical treat.
