My mom, sister, and I all like to hang out. And, in the summer, hanging out would often involve a bowl of ice cream. The only trouble is, as the years have worn on, regular ice cream doesn’t agree with all of us anymore. So when I learned that you can make ice cream out of coconut milk instead, I was all about it.
Three ingredients. That is all it takes to make cool, creamy, dairy free ice cream. There are about a thousand ways you can make this coconut milk ice cream your own. Add in brown sugar and pineapple for a bit of a piña colada flavor. Or maybe some roasted strawberries are more your style. No matter which way you churn it, your belly will thank you.
