So Simple!
Combine

Ingredients for the Coconut Sorbet
  • 3/4 cup fresh coconut

I’m using my professional ice cream maker – here the coconut sorbet has almost hardened.
Now time for some fun! Steam in the chocolate mixture for “chips”

What I Love about this recipe:

Well first, it’s quite simple to make. The texture is very creamy, with bits of fresh coconut and shards of chocolate mixed in. It has a lighter quality then ice cream, and a very delicious natural flavor. Mostly, it is very refreshing! – And not overly sweet.

The Method is So Simple!

  • Heat 1/4 cup coconut milk and 2/3 cups sugar, just to melt the sugar, cool
  • Add all ingredients to a blender, run until the coconut is chopped into small bits
  • Process immediately in a ice cream maker
  • Makes 1 quart (2 pints)

For the Chocolate Chip Mix-In:

  • I do not use chocolate chips or shaved chocolate!
  • You will simply melt chocolate with a small amount of coconut oil in the microwave.
  • When still warm – swirl the chocolate into the ice cream after it has just hardened. Yes – you will take the cover off! Use a pyrex measuring cup to add the warn chocolate in thin streams – Makes chocolate shards throughout the ice cream!
    (Similar to a chocolate hard shell topping.) Genius.

    Blend on medium speed for 10 seconds. Look at the texture – you want the fresh coconut into small bits, about 1/8 inch.

Chow to make "Chocolate Chip Mix-In:

  • Add chocolate and coconut oil to a small bowl, melt in the microwave. Stir well. DO THIS as the sorbet has almost finished churning.
    Open the top, while churning – drizzle the chocolate mixture in, continuing as it churns. chocolate will harden into small flakes!
    If churning into two batches, use half of chocolate mixture in each, making sure it is warm. 

NOTE:

  • This sorbet is to be made as directed, the sorbet mixture should be churned immediately and not refrigerated first. (If refrigerated, will cause fat solids to harden.

Notes

If churning into two batches, use half of chocolate mixture in each, making sure  the chocolate is warm.
