Ingredients

2 cups shredded coconut, divided
2 14-ounce cans unsweetened coconut milk, minimum 60% coconut extract
½ cup coconut sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
½ cup chocolate chunks, optional

Method

* Place the coconut in a large pan over medium heat. Stir occasionally for about 5 minutes, or until it smells fragrant and is golden brown.

* Add the coconut milk and coconut sugar to a small pot and warm over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from the pot from the heat and stir in the vanilla and 1 ½ cups of the toasted coconut. Place the pot in your fridge until the coconut milk is cold.

* Process the coconut ice cream in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturers directions. If using, stir in the chocolate chunks.

* Serve with the remaining toasted coconut sprinkled over the top.

No Churn Toasted Coconut Ice Cream

* Pour the cold coconut milk into a shallow pan and place it in your freezer. After 1 hour, remove the pan and scrape the ice cream with a fork and mix it around.

* Put it back into your freezer for another hour. Repeat these steps 2-3 more times, until the ice cream is frozen and creamy. If using, stir the chocolate chunks through the ice cream after the last time you scrape it with a fork.
