The Ingredients

• Heavy Whipping Cream – an important base for most no churn ice cream recipes as it provides volume and creaminess. Can be found in the dairy section in grocery stores.
• Sweetened Condensed Milk – for sweetness and creaminess. Here is the sweetened condensed milk I used.
• Unsweetened Coconut Cream – for coconutty flavor and creaminess. Coconut cream is a kind of thick cream made from coconut milk and it is often sold in cans. Here is the unsweetened coconut cream used.
• Coconut Extract – to deepen the coconut flavor and drive home the point that this is coconut ice cream. Here is the coconut extract I use.
• Salt – a very important ingredient as a little salt helps to balance out the sweetness in desserts.

See the recipe card below for the quantities of each ingredient.
