Best 5 Mocha Coconut Ice Cream Recipes

MOCHA ICE CREAM

Steps:

• In a large heavy saucepan, combine the sugar, cocoa, flour, coffee and salt. Gradually add milk and eggs; stir until smooth. Cook and stir over medium-low heat until mixture is thick enough to coat a metal spoon and reaches 160°, about 15 minutes. Refrigerate until chilled. Stir in the remaining in the remaining ingredients. Fill ice cream freezer cylinder two-thirds full; freeze according to manufacturer's instructions. Refrigerate remaining mixture until ready to freeze. Remove from the freezer 10 minutes before serving.

MOCHA ESPRESSO ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Mix heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, espresso, and chocolate syrup in a bowl until sugar is dissolved. Refrigerate until chilled.
• Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's directions until it reaches "soft-serve" consistency. Stir in almonds and dark chocolate. Serve soft ice cream or transfer ice cream to a one- or two-quart lidded plastic container; cover surface with plastic wrap and seal. For best results, ice cream should ripen in the freezer for at least 2 hours or overnight.

MOCHA COCONUT FRAPPES

Steps:

• Place the coconut cream in a large bowl, or the bowl of a stand mixer if using, and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
• Add the coconut milk, coffee, ice, 3 tablespoons sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla and salt to a blender and blend on high speed until smooth and frothy, about 1 minute. Pour the frappe into 2 glasses and refrigerate while you whip the coconut cream.
• Whip the chilled coconut cream and the remaining 1 teaspoon sugar in a stand mixer, or with a hand mixer, until it holds soft peaks, about 1 minute. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with an open star tip and pipe a swirl of whipped cream onto each drink. Sprinkle the cream with the toasted coconut and dust lightly with cocoa powder.

MATCHA MOCHI ICE CREAM

Steps:

• To make the ice-cream, put all of the ingredients in a blender and blitz until smooth. Chill the mixture for at least 1 hr or overnight. Remove from the fridge, stir and pour into an ice cream maker and churn for 45 mins, or until thick and frozen. Alternatively, pour into a freezable container and freeze for 90 mins. Remove from the freezer and whisk the mixture, freeze for a further 45 mins, then whisk the mixture again. Put it back into the freezer for another 30 mins. Repeat this 2-3 times more, freezing for 30 mins each time. Then, freeze for a final 2-3 hrs.
• Remove the ice cream from the freezer to soften slightly, then use a 5cm-sized ice cream scoop to make 8 balls. Scoop them onto a tray lined with baking parchment, then freeze for at least 30 mins or overnight. If they are tricky to scoop, leave the ice cream for a few minutes to soften or use your hands to shape the balls.
• Dust a 30 x 20cm baking tray with half the cornflour. Pour 200ml water into a 1-litre sized saucepan along with the matcha powder. Mix well, then add the rice flour and caster sugar and set over a medium heat. Use a whisk to break up any lumps, then switch to a spatula when it begins to thicken after 2-3 mins. Stir quickly for another 30 seconds until it begins to come together like a sticky ball of dough.
• Transfer the dough to the prepared baking tray and carefully flatten out with the spatula. Once cool enough to touch, dust over the remaining cornflour and use your hands to flatten out to about the size of the tray. Leave it to cool down, cover and keep in the fridge for 30 mins. Will keep covered and chilled for up to three days.
• Roll out the mochi dough on a dry chopping board dusted with a little extra cornflour until 5mm thick. Cut out 10cm circles using a cookie cutter or cup. Place a scoop of ice cream on top of a circle of dough, then carefully fold the dough around the ice cream, pinching at the top to seal, then turn over so that the top becomes the bottom. (This will be easier if you dust your hands with cornflour.) Repeat until all the ice cream and dough is used, then freezer for at least 2 hrs before serving. Will keep frozen for up to one month. Take the mochi out of the freezer and leave at room temperature for around 3-5 mins to soften, before serving.

MOCHA ICE CREAM

• Melt chocolate in a double boiler or heat-resistant bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water. Add condensed milk and stir for 5 minutes. Add cold-brewed coffee and mix well. Chill.
• Whip cream, add vanilla and fold into chilled chocolate mixture. Pour into an airtight container and chill in freezer for an hour.
• Churn cold mixture in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Pour into an airtight container and freeze until hard. The ice cream will keep for up to a week in the freezer.
