Coconut ice cream?

[FusionChefGeoff]

I'm doing a vegan dessert for a gathering and I'm not vegan but an enthusiastic cook so want to make it interesting!

I love the idea of vegan meringue but will have to make it the day before which means it might be past it's best at eating time.

So my Grandma used to do a sort of frozen Eton mess with crunched up meringue pieces, cream and frozen berries stirred in. She would freeze it all and it would be delicious!!

So if I used coconut milk (mainly the fat solid bit) and whisked it with sugar would that create a sort of cream that would freeze?????

Coconut milk does freeze, it goes solid in the fridge though so a long time in to freezer will make it very solid. It’s try mixing it and sticking in the fridge to see if that gets the consistency you want. And if you’re using a tin you need to chill it first to get the water stuff (technical term) to separate first.

Sounds great and thanks for catering for the vegans

Good to know thank you - I'll do an experimental version with non vegan shop meringues to see what works best.

This recipe sounds delicious.
