Description

These Creamy Ice Cream Bars are a delightful frozen treat made with rich coconut cream and milk, blended with milk powder and condensed milk for extra creaminess. Slightly thickened with cornstarch and customizable with your favorite flavoring, these bars are easy to prepare and perfect for a refreshing dessert on a warm day.


Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 35g milk powder
  • 15g sugar
  • 10g condensed milk
  • 160g coconut cream (or whipping cream)
  • 200g coconut milk (or regular milk)
  • 10g cornstarch
  • 2g food flavoring (optional, e.g., vanilla or fruit essence)


Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a medium pot, mix together the coconut cream, coconut milk, milk powder, sugar, and condensed milk until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
  2. Cook Mixture: Place the pot over low heat and stir constantly to prevent burning or lumps from forming in the mixture.
  3. Thicken: Gradually sprinkle in the cornstarch while continuously stirring, allowing the mixture to thicken to a creamy consistency.
  4. Flavor: Remove the pot from heat and gently stir in your chosen food flavoring, such as vanilla or fruit essence, if desired.
  5. Fill Molds: Pour the thickened mixture evenly into ice cream molds, insert popsicle sticks in the center of each, and place them in the freezer.
  6. Freeze: Freeze the molds for at least 4 hours or until the ice cream bars are fully set and firm.
  7. Serve: Once frozen, remove the ice cream bars from their molds and enjoy your creamy, homemade frozen treat!

Notes

  • You can substitute coconut cream with whipping cream and coconut milk with regular milk if preferred.
  • Use cornstarch gradually to avoid clumps when thickening the mixture.
  • Add natural flavorings like vanilla extract or fruit essence for variety.
  • Make sure to stir constantly during cooking to prevent burning and ensure a smooth texture.
  • Freeze long enough for the mixture to fully set, ideally 4 hours or overnight for best texture.
