Easy Coconut Ice Cream

6 ingredients
6 steps

Ingredients

  • 200 g white sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 480 ml double cream
  • 480 ml full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 tablespoons coconut flakes

Directions

  1. 1
    Whisk together the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. 2
    Place the bowl over a pan with about 1cm of simmering water. Do not let the bowl touch the water. Whisk continuously for ten minutes, until the eggs have cooked through and you're left with a thick, custard-like mixture.
  3. 3
    Allow to cool (I place the bowl into a sink of cold water to speed this up), then place in the fridge.
  4. 4
    Meanwhile, whisk the double cream in a large bowl until it forms still peaks. Gently fold through the coconut milk, vanilla extract, coconut flakes and the cooled egg mixture.
  5. 5
    Pour into sealable plastic containers and freeze for 8 hours.
  6. 6
    Bring out of the freezer at least 15 minutes before serving to allow it to soften slightly.
