Creamy Coconut Ice Cream
Okay this was probably a wrong day to do an ice-cream photo shoot as its super summer weather out here today (BTW I am totally digging the sun after so long). But hot or not this is a perfect time to share with you all this summery CREAMY COCONUT ICE CREAM. As you all know by now that I am totally obsessed with creating new flavors of ice creams and honestly its super duper fun to experiment with lots of different ingredients. So after sharing the yummy rose and pan ice cream I had to make another favorite of mine which is coconut. The simple, sweet, creamy decadent flavor of coconut is great in the form of an ice cream on a hot summer day like today. I have literally stopped buying store bought ice creams and trust me you will too. It's not all difficult to make these simple recipes as it requires very less effort and plus you don't even need an ice cream machine. So get these ingredients in your next grocery trip if you don't already have them.Make some for you, family, friends, neighbors and enjoy sharing some love and sweetness. RECIPE BELOW..
