A creamy, tropical delight made with just four simple ingredients—this no-churn coconut ice cream is the perfect dessert for summer days or whenever you’re craving a taste of the tropics. No ice cream maker? No problem! This recipe is beginner-friendly and comes together in minutes before freezing into a luscious, scoopable treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream (cold)
  • 1 can (13–14 oz) cream of coconut (not coconut cream)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Whip the Cream: In a medium mixing bowl, beat the cold heavy whipping cream with a hand or stand mixer on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip.
  2. Fold in Coconut Mixture: Gently fold in the cream of coconut, vanilla extract, and salt using a spatula. Mix until just combined, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
  3. Freeze: Pour the mixture into a 9×5 loaf pan or any freezer-safe container. Smooth the top with a spatula and cover tightly with plastic wrap or foil. Freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight.
  4. Serve: Let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before scooping for easier serving. Garnish with shredded or toasted coconut if desired.

Notes

Serving Suggestions:

  • Serve in bowls, cones, or even hollowed-out coconut shells for a fun presentation.
  • Pair with fresh tropical fruits like mango or pineapple for an extra burst of flavor.

Tips & Tricks:

  • Use cold heavy whipping cream straight from the fridge for the best results when whipping.
  • If your cream of coconut has solidified, run the can under warm water and stir until smooth before using.
  • Be sure to use cream of coconut (sweetened) instead of unsweetened coconut cream to ensure your ice cream is sweet enough.

Storage Instructions:

  • Store leftover ice cream in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 week. Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface to prevent freezer burn.
  • Let frozen ice cream soften at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before scooping.
