Vegan Ice Cream

Vegan Ice Cream is fun and easy to make once you learn the ‘secret ingredients’.  Not so secret really — just coconut milk!!

My husband Malcolm, is really the king of Vegan Ice Cream, but I have made lots of it too just by adding frozen fruit to the cold coconut milk and blending it thoroughly in the Vitamix.

This recipe uses Cream of Coconut which I wan not familiar with.   I did a bit of  research to find out it is a mix of of coconut meat, coconut oil and coconut milk.  Cream of Coconut is rather solid and has the consistency of ‘toothpaste’ when it is warmed.  Great addition to Vegan Ice Cream in my opinion!

Upon researching Cream of Coconut, I found an organic brand, Let’s Do Organic Creamed Coconut, 7-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6), that I would recommend over the Coco Lopez brand the author uses.
