Description
Creamy mango coconut ice cream delivers tropical paradise on a spoon. Luscious Caribbean-inspired dessert melts smoothly, offering sweet escape for summer cravings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups (710 ml) frozen mango chunks
- 1 can (14 oz / 400 ml) unsweetened coconut milk
- ¼ to ½ cup (60 to 120 ml) honey
Instructions
- Chill Preparation: Freeze the ice cream maker’s bowl overnight to ensure optimal churning performance and smooth texture.
- Blend Base: Whisk coconut milk until uniform, then combine with ripe mango chunks and honey in a high-powered blender, processing until achieving a silky, homogeneous liquid with no visible fragments.
- Flavor Calibration: Taste the blended mixture, adjusting sweetness incrementally to balance the tropical mango profile and create a harmonious flavor experience.
- Churning Process: Pour the mango-coconut liquid into the pre-chilled ice cream maker, activating the machine and allowing it to transform the mixture into a thick, soft-serve consistency over 15-25 minutes.
- Freezing Technique: Transfer the churned ice cream into a sealed freezer-safe container, creating an even surface, and freeze for a minimum of two hours to achieve the perfect scoopable texture.
- Serving Ritual: Remove from freezer, let sit briefly to soften, then scoop and indulge in the creamy, tropical dessert that captures the essence of mango and coconut.
Notes
- Chill Equipment Thoroughly: Freeze the ice cream maker’s bowl overnight for the smoothest, creamiest texture possible.
- Blend for Perfection: Whisk coconut milk completely and blend mango mixture until silky smooth to eliminate any unwanted chunks.
- Taste and Adjust Sweetness: Sample the mixture before churning and incrementally add honey to balance the tropical mango flavor.
- Soften Before Serving: Let the ice cream rest 2-3 minutes at room temperature to enhance scoopability and release full tropical essence.
