You only need two ingredients to make this luscious ice cream, seriously TWO!!! The other night my kiddies wanted something cold and creamy and to be honest so did I. Most of you know I am dairy sensitive so certain dairy on occasion I can have and some I just can't and cause me stomach issues. So this recipe is perfect for me and anyone else with dairy sensitivity or allergies.
Remember my Low Fat Pina Colada Smoothie recipe??? I just adapted it slightly, plopped this blended mixture in my KitchenAid Ice Cream Attachment and in 15 minutes I had what you see above! Pure divine deliciousness!
The picky family LOVED it with some shredded, unsweetened coconut flakes sprinkled on top. If you don't have any fresh pineapple don't worry about it! I only had some canned crushed, but you can use sliced or chunked because it all goes in the blender anyway. The only other needed ingredient is coconut milk. I used canned lite, not full fat. I promise you, YOU will not notice it isn't full fat coconut milk in there. You really can get away without using the full fat in this recipe, but if that's all you have then use it. The nutrition info will change and increase.

is this recipe meant to be eaten right away? Just curious if it gets too hard how good it will be. Sounds really good and EASY!
Brenda
We ate it right away so I can't say how it will be once frozen overnight. But I think if you just allow it thaw on the counter it will be just as soft.

I don't have an ice cream machine. Could I just put it in the freezer for awhile and get similar results? I love coconut!
Brenda
I would say to only blend it and place it in a container for a short time in the freezer. Too long and it will be too hard so plan on soft serve. 🙂

There is nothing wrong with fat (unless it's trans fat). Coconut oil/fat is really good for you!! Don't fear fat: http://www.dietdoctor.com/lchf
I love pina colada's, the hardest part for me is to not put any rum in, LOL! This looks nice and easy!!

Do the ingredients need to be chilled before blending?
Brenda
They can be, but not necessary when using an ice cream machine.
