Coconut Ice Cream Recipe

This coconut ice cream recipe is delicious! This was the first time I tried this ice cream...but I was hooked immediately!

hey, why not take advantage of our End of Summer Sale on our Ice Cream Recipe eBook?

I'd been wanting to make this recipe for quite some time - but the only trouble I had was being able to find the coconut milk.

If you have ever had trouble finding this before too, I sympathize with you. Stores generally carry the coconut milk in their canned milk section - it should be alongside evaporated milk and sweetened condensed milk. If the store you usually frequent doesn't carry it, try a higher end grocery store or a health food grocery store. It's worth the hunt - because you'll love this ice cream!

Serving Tip: Serve inside a hollowed out coconut!
