Fourth of July was crazy hot. Temp=99 degrees. Heat Index= 105+ After spending the day in the sun at our Annual Fourth of July event at the pool and then grilling out for a BBQ with our neighbors it was nice to kick back and have this scrumptious deliciousness. Before the craziness of the day started, while the rest of my house was still snoozing - I made the coconut ice cream in my new Kitchen Aid Ice Cream attachment. After throwing it all in the ice cream maker, I just ran it for a little and froze it until we were ready for the yum yum. So Worth It!!! Stay tuned for more ice cream this summer as I plan to use it ALOT. I did not change one thing in this recipe. It is perfect as is.
Recipe from: Nobile Pig
Ingredients:
Ice cream
1 cup whole milk
1-3/4 cups (or 14 oz can) creme of coconut
1-1/2 cups heavy cream
Honey-Lime Strawberries
2 pounds strawberries, hulled and halved
1/4 cup plus 1 Tablespoon clover honey
1 teaspoon lime zest
Juice of one lime
Directions:
1. Don't forget to freeze your ice cream container.
2. For the ice cream, blend milk and creme of coconut together in a blender before adding it to the ice cream maker.
3. Pour in heavy cream and turn on ice cream maker. Keep it going until the cream mixture is thick, about 30-40 minutes. Remove ice cream from the ice cream maker bowl and place in appropriate container in the freezer; at least 4 hours.
4. Before serving the ice cream, you need to make the topping. Wash, hull and halve strawberries. Set aside.
