Coconut Caramel Swirl Ice Cream {No Machine Needed}

August 16, 2013
The amazing flavor combination of coconut and caramel in this no-machine needed Coconut Caramel Swirl Ice Cream is simply dripping with deliciousness.



Today I'm happy to bring you Coconut Caramel Swirl Ice Cream ... and, oh my goodness, this stuff is absolutely drool-worthy.
This amazingly delicious Coconut Caramel Swirl Ice Cream actually all started with the easy 3-Ingredient Creamy Coconut Ice Cream I shared on Monday.  Once I tasted how totally yummy the 'original' coconut ice cream version was, I just had to experiment with it.  'Cause that's just what I do.

And so this caramel swirl version was born.


Now, while the Coconut-Almond Fudge Ripple version I shared on Wednesday is divine ... I love this Coconut Caramel Swirl even more!  I mean, this stuff is the lick-your-computer-screen kind of good.

Or as my hubby described it ... it's simply dripping with deliciousness!  {I know, I know ... bad pun with this photo.  But it's at least a teeny tiny bit funny, right?}


Not sure about the flavor combination of coconut and caramel?  Don't be afraid ... it's sooooooo good.  Try it.  I think you'll be amazed at how ... well ... amazing it is.

And believe me, I will keep experimenting with this ice cream method.  Oh, so many possibilities just waiting to be dreamed up.

Thank you for stopping by The Kitchen is My Playground. We'd love to have you back soon!

  2. has anyone tried to make ice cream with full coconut cream in a can - my husband cannnot have heavy cream - dairy issue - just wondering if this has ever been tried - I know you can use it to make whipped cream which you also use heavy cream to do the same thing?

    1. I haven't tried it ... but I say give it a go! I would think if you can use cream of coconut to make whipped cream, then it may just work for making ice cream without dairy. The open question is how solid it would freeze without combining it with the whipped cream.

  7. We have been on an ice cream kick this summer, this is the first year we have made homemade ice cream. So we are definitely hooked. I can't wait to try this recipe. Thank you so much for sharing this with the Less Laundry, More Linking Party.

  9. Hi! I live in korea, and I cannot find cream of coconut. Do you think this recipe would work without all the coconut ingredients?

    1. Hi! You can replace the cream of coconut with sweetened condensed milk. The sweetened condensed milk will provide the sweetening the ice cream needs and produce the same texture that the cream of coconut would have. You just won't have as strong a coconut flavor ... but it will still be good!

  10. Can I make this in an Ice Cream Maker with the frozen bowl?
