It
is finally time to break out the ice cream maker again! I am so excited, I made
a few things last year after I got the kitchen aid stand mixer attachment for
my Birthday they all turned out amazing,
I
can’t wait to crank out a bunch more frosty treats this year.
I
decided to start with this Coconut lime ice cream, delish!
What
you need,
1
½ cups whole milk
1
cup sweetened coconut
¼
cup sugar
Pinch
of salt
4
large egg yolks
1
14oz. can sweetened condensed milk
½
cup fresh lime juice (from about 5 limes)
1
tbsp. lime zest, chopped
1
tsp. coconut extract
Combine
the milk, coconut, sugar and salt in a medium saucepan. Stir over medium heat
and bring to a low simmer, reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes or until
the mixture is reduce by ¼.
Remove
the pot from the heat and cover. Allow the mixture too steep for 1 hour. Strain
through a fine mesh sieve into a measuring cup.
Reheat
the mixture in a clean pot over medium low heat.
In
a separate bowl whisk the yolks. Once the milk is hot, not boiling, add about ¼
cup of the hot milk mixture to the eggs, whisking the whole time to temper the
eggs so they won’t curdle.
Slowly
add the tempered eggs into the pot of hot milk whisking the whole time. Heat
until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Pour
the can of condensed milk, lime juice and zest into a large bowl and place over
an ice bath. Once the custard is ready, strain through a fine mesh sieve into
the condensed milk mixture and stir until cooled.
Stir
in the coconut extract.
Cover
and refrigerate the mixture for at least 5 hours or overnight.
Mix
the cream in your ice cream maker according to manufactures instructions.
Once the ice cream is ready, transfer it to an airtight container and keep it in the freezer until you are are ready to serve.
This
is the perfect summer treat. It is super creamy and so tangy, I loved it!

This looks delicious, Jen. I've been looking at a couple of different ice creams that include condensed milk. I need to finally try it!
