Easy Coconut ice recipe
A favourite treat! So easy to make, I covered mine in milk chocolate, a winner all round!
Tartel68

Icing sugar, sieved

225g

Desiccated coconut

75g

Tiny drop natural red food colouring

Step 1 of 4

Watch our recipe video before you start!

Step 2 of 4

Mix together the condensed milk and icing sugar. Stir in the desiccated coconut until the mixture has reached a super stiff consistency – you may need to add a bit more desiccated coconut to achieve this [watch our video to see the desired consistency!]. Divide the mix in half and colour one half of the mixture pale pink and keep mixing until you have an even colour.

Step 3 of 4

Double-line a small plastic box with baking parchment or cling film before placing the white coconut ice in the bottom, pressing it into a bar shape. Form the pink coconut ice into a similar shape and press firmly together.

Step 4 of 4

Chill in the fridge for 1-2 hours or until firm, then cut into squares. You can leave this at room temperature to set but it will take longer. Keep in an airtight container ideally in the fridge and use within 2 weeks.  Perfect to make with children for school fairs or presents... Dress them up in a glass jar or fancy box with a bow on top for a beautiful homemade gift..      

Now you've mastered the original try a chocolatey twist to your coconut ice recipe.. Try making adding melted dark chocolate into one half of the mixture.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Recipe is wrong I've been making this recipe for years and just came back to refresh my memory and its all a bit off. It always used to read 175g of coconut. I always double the recipe tonuse a whole can of condensed milk and have always made it 450g icing sugar and 350g coconut to make a thick consistency that will actually hold its shape. There is no way that just 75g would come even close to setting. I've also always set mine for 4-6 hours in the fridge or overnight. Again, 2 hours would not be enough here. Has this recipe been revised on here? And if so it needs changing back please!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Brilliant easy to follow recipe Made this as a gift to go in gift baskets. Absolutely lovely easy to follow easy to make and looked wonderful. Everyone stated how much they had enjoyed it and couldn’t believe I had actually made it. Will definitely be making this more regularly.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from So Easy This is a lovely little treat recipe. One can of milk, icing sugar and coconut and you're away. No baking and all in one bowl. Perfect for a little treat without being costly. I made mine all white as only had blue and green food colouring! But then I dunked mine in chocolate which made it heavenly.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great ……. But Well 2nd time making this - really love it but on watching the video it says 75g and typed recipe says 175g I did seem to have a lot of coconut I just could not incorporate- but I went with it and just used what I could mix in. I also find it really hard to make the pink distribute all the way through because it’s a stiff consistency. Could there be an option to maybe colour the condensed milk before adding everything? I shall certainly try that next time I think - it will work or it won’t!! Think I had out of the 175g coconut about 50 or so leftover. Worth checking your amounts on paper versus video carnation! I still love it and it always goes down as a great gift at Christmas!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Easy and tasty Made this last night for the first time it was easy to make. I paid attention to the reviews before me and ended up using a little more coconut as my mixture was quite wet. Once it has chilled I left it out over night to crisp up a bit and it's really nice this morning. Has the consistency of a bounty rather than traditional coconut ice. Watch out! the quantities in the list differ from that in the video. Note I used the typed receipe. Enjoy
