This is now a fave at our house. I drizzled butterscotch topping in between the layers of ice cream when storing it in the freezer. It is fantastic!

I added dark chocolate-covered almonds and slightly less flaked coconut. Also, someone else said it but I'll say it again: if you are having trouble finding cream of coconut, try looking in the alcoholic drink mixers section - that's where it was in my supermarket! This was a bit less creamy than cooked ice creams I've made - but a LOT easier, too! I thought this was very very good, and it got lots of compliments at a party. I will definitely make it again!

Delicious Recipe. Very Easy to make and it tastes just fantastic! It was not too sweet. I toasted the walnuts and the coconut shavings and it really tasted great. Next time, i'll try it just plain.

It was ok, but tasted too much like whipping cream and not icecream.

Very, very good. The family loved it. If only I could find Coco Lopez for cheap! One star knocked off because the coconut ice cream served at the Thai restaurant in my neighborhood still has the edge, if only slightly!

My husband loved this recipe. I only changed one thing-added two small cans of cream of coconut, to make it sweeter. It was incredible. :)

Very good, but it's not the best I've ever had. Therefore I gave it a 4 star rating. I toasted the coconut first, and would love to try chocolate in it next time.

I have been looking since 04 for coconut ice cream, and I have finaly found it.We had it in Mexico topped with a drizzle of kahlua. We added the pineapple also and this is just great. Everyone who has had it here has liked it. Alone or with a topping. Thank you so much for sharing!

This ice cream was so good! I was amazed at how easy it was too. I added the flaked coconut to the food processor as well and it was a good consistency. It wasn't "icy" at all. I added chocolate chips to it, and then ate most of it within two days. I will be making this all the time!!

This was very tasty! I toasted the coconut and cooled it before adding the mixture. 1.5 cups of coconut was a little much for my Cuisinart ice cream maker to handle. I saved about 1/4 cup to sprinkle on the gelato later. I also used 2.5 cups of 2% milk. Next time I make this, I plan on using a little whole milk to get a thicker gelato out of the ice cream maker (although this froze to a nice, scoopable consistency right out of the freezer); and decreasing the amount of coconut.

This recipe is amazing! It was the best ice cream I've ever had. I added 1 cup of mini chocolate chips and it was fantastic! Everyone in my family loved it. Plus, it took about 5 minutes to make... So Easy & NO BAKE!!! Next time I will use a little less coconut flakes. I think one cup would be plenty especially once I added the chocolate chips.

OMG!! This is so good! It is creamy and great coconut flavor. My batch is still in my ice cream maker and is almost finished, but I just had to taste it. It is wonderful. I put all of the ingredients including the flaked coconut in my blender. It was so easy. I can't wait for the finished product. I'll update my review later to let you know how it tastes, but I don't think I'll have any complaints. Edited 07/14: This is exactly the flavor I wanted. I didn't find it overly sweet. It tastes exactly like the coconut ice cream that was sold at the ice cream shop I worked at in college. Thank you so much for the terrific recipe!

My husband loved it! I mistakenly misread the recipe for the amount of coconut required--added more (14 oz). I placed everything in the processor as suggested by a few reviewers and substituted milk with half & half and whipping cream. Definitely coconut ice cream, better than I've had in the past but next time, less coconut for sure!

Mmm, creamy coconutty goodness. Super easy to make, too! I did add toasted coconut, because I had some left over from another recipe, and it was delicious. I have one of those freeze-the-bowl kind of ice cream makers and I've had problems before with my ice cream maker not quite getting the ice cream firm enough. So this time I froze the coconut cream mixture for about 30 minutes (stirring a couple times) to get it good and chilled before putting it in the ice cream maker, and voila! Perfectly frozen ice cream after 12 minutes in the ice cream maker.

Are you kidding me?! This is the easiest ice cream I have ever made - no raw eggs or cooked eggs in it. I was not sure how good the texture would be without them but it's the bomb-diggidy if you like coconut! By far the easiest ice cream recipe on the planet - thanks a bunch!!!

Rich, creamy explosion of coconut flavor! This is also one of the easiest ice creams I've made as it calls for so few ingredients and no extra steps like cooking the custard or mixing and chopping. This is a lovely, pure white ice cream, easily adaptable to endless toppings or additions if you choose, though it is perfect just as is. For this occasion I just drizzled some chocolate syrup on the plate and added a few fresh raspberries and chopped chocolate covered almonds. I followed the recipe exactly as written, but chopped the coconut finely in my food processor. I added the coconut to the cream mixture and then let it steep its flavor into the mixture while chilling in the fridge for several hours. This is one of those few recipes that exceed your expectations.

No better ice cream can be produced. Use the flaked coconut. This freezes up hard but creamy. If you like coconut, you will be astounded! (Oh, I added 1/2 teaspoon very good vanilla extract.)
