Last year, I discovered no churn ice creams (hello, cookies and cream ice cream). Since then, I’ve been hooked. I’ve pretty much retired my ice cream maker because this no-churn method is so much easier. I’m very excited to experiment with more flavors now that it’s officially ice cream weather.

Up first, is this coconut creation. I’ve made coconut ice cream before but I wanted to create a no-churn version.

There are so many different coconut products out there on the market now. I recently bought some coconut oil for my skin and my husband was so confused when he read the label and it states it can be used for baking, cooking, skin and hair. Haha!

I tried a few coconut products before settling on this one.

Cream of Coconut. Not to be confused with coconut cream or coconut milk. This is like sweetened condensed milk but with coconut instead. It pours out like a thick syrup and is used often in cocktails. You can get it at Walmart, supermarkets, Amazon, and wine & spirit stores like BevMo. If you have trouble finding it, look for it displayed next to other cocktail mixers.

Making this ice cream is easy. I’ve already made two batches! I garnished mine with some toasted coconut flakes, but that’s completely optional.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups 16 oz cold heavy cream
  • 14 oz cream of coconut (see note)

Instructions

  • Add cold heavy cream to a stand mixer and using the whisk attachment, mix on high speed until stiff peaks form.
  • Scoop whipped cream into a large bowl. Pour in the cream of coconut and use a large spatula to fold it into the whipped cream until the cream of coconut is completely mixed in. Your whipped cream will lose its stiff peaks but should still look fluffy when you're done. You can see photos of what it should look like here.
  • Pour ice cream into a 9 x 5 loaf pan. Use a spatula to smooth and even out the surface. Freeze overnight. If you desire more texture, you can sprinkle some toasted sweetened coconut flakes on top of the ice cream before serving.

Notes

  • Cream of coconut is not the same as coconut cream or coconut milk. It's like a sweetened condensed milk but with coconut instead, so make sure you buy a version that is already pre-sweetened. It pours out like a thick syrup and is used often in cocktails. You can get it at Walmart, supermarkets, Amazon, and wine & spirit stores like BevMo. If you have trouble finding it, look for it displayed next to other cocktail mixers.

  1. Thank you for this recipe , can I use sweetened condensed coconut , 2 cans of that & they have now at the store Cream of Coconut whipping cream!!! 2 cans of that , could I use this method still , instead of cold Heavy cream , use the Cold Cononut whipping cream & whip ,& then add the 2 cans of sweetened condensed coconut milk (sweetened w/ cane sugar) would I then fold the Sweetened condensed coconut milk into the whipped coconut cream, ,& then just pour it into a loaf pan & freeze ? I’m wondering if it would work this way? Tyia I appreciate this easy recipe , I also have Vanilla bean & Vanilla bean paste ! & Toasted coconut would be so good on the top ! Thanks again

    • It’s hard to say how that will all work without testing it. If you tried it please let us know how it worked!

  2. They have a Coconut sweetened condensed milk as well is that what I should use? Does that have to be chilled as well?? Thank you so much for this recipe I am in the middle of making it I hope it turns out , lol

    • We use Cream of Coconut for this recipe, which is similar to sweetened condensed milk. If you have sweetened condensed coconut milk it should be ok, but it’s hard to say without seeing exactly what you’re using.

  3. Thank you for this. Just made it with the Cream of Coconut you recommended. Lovely texture but way too sweet for me. Will play around with ratios and different coconut products.

  4. First time I made it and is delicious!!!!
    I put inside grated coconut. I don’t like sweet to much, but this is perfect
    Thanks for sharing. ??

  5. This sounds really amazing, but as someone with limited kitchen equipment, I have two questions. 1: can I whip heavy cream in a blender or will that not work? 2: can I use unsweetened coconut cream and add a sweetener of my choice? I don’t eat any sugar, only zero calorie alternatives so I wanted a way to make this that fits my diet.

    • This coconut cream only comes in sweetened form from what I understand so I don’t believe you will be able to find unsweetened. It’s basically like condensed milk but made with coconut.

    • Aroy-D Pure Coconut Cream is 100% coconut cream – no sweeteners, no Guam gum. You can add your own.

  6. Do you just leave the pan open when freezing it? Does it need to be covered?

  7. This turned out so great. I did overwhip my cream a bit, but it was wonderful regardless 🙂 I can’t wait to try more!

  8. I’m wondering if you can substitute cream of coconut for sweetened condensed milk? 

  9. Now I need to find that cream of coconut. With the heatwave, it’s time to make some ice cream again!  I love that this recipe has only 2 ingredients. Easy!

  10. oo I’m excited about this as I use that cream of coconut for pina coladas so I already have it! do you know if a lighter cream would work as well?

    • I don’t think so. You really do need all the fat provided in the heavy cream, as well as the fat and sugar in the condensed milk. I’ve played around with different ratios and the ice cream never comes out as fluffy.
