The homemade ice cream is the perfect recipe to try if you have an abundance of eggs to get rid of. The non-alcoholic dessert has a Hawaiian theme and is adapted from a William Sonoma dish.
To make your own coconut ice cream at home, you will require sweetened coconut flakes, half and half, canned sweetened cream of coconut, egg yolks, sugar and heavy cream.
