Baskin Robbins Copycat Nutty Coconut Ingredients

• Whole Milk: Adds creamy texture and helps create a smooth ice cream base.
• Heavy Cream: Makes the ice cream rich, thick, and extra creamy.
• Granulated Sugar: Sweetens the base while balancing coconut and nut flavors.
• Vanilla Extract: Adds warm flavor that enhances the coconut taste.
• Sweetened Shredded Coconut: Brings sweet coconut flavor and chewy texture throughout.
• Toasted Coconut Flakes: Adds deeper coconut flavor with a light crunchy bite.
• Chopped Almonds or Pecans: Provides nutty crunch that pairs perfectly with coconut.
• Salt: Balances sweetness and enhances all the dessert flavors.

How To Make Ninja Cream Baskin Robbins Copycat Nutty Coconut Ice Cream

Step 1: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and a small pinch of salt. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture looks smooth.

Step 2: Stir in the sweetened shredded coconut so the coconut flavor is evenly distributed throughout the base.

Step 3: Pour the mixture into your Ninja Creami pint container. Place the lid on and freeze on a flat surface for at least 12–24 hours, or until completely solid.

Step 4: Insert the frozen pint into the Ninja Creami machine. Select the Ice Cream function and process until the texture becomes smooth and creamy.

Step 5: Create a small well in the center of the ice cream and add the toasted coconut flakes and chopped almonds or pecans. Run the Mix-In function to evenly distribute the crunchy toppings.

Step 6: Serve immediately for the creamiest texture. Top with extra toasted coconut or nuts if you want an extra crunch in every bite.

Ninja Cream Baskin Robbins Copycat Nutty Coconut Recipe Tips

• Toast the coconut first: Lightly toasting the coconut flakes brings out a deeper, richer coconut flavor and adds a little crunch.
• Freeze the base completely: The mixture must be fully frozen before spinning in the Ninja Creami for the best creamy texture.
• Don’t skip the re-spin: If the ice cream looks crumbly after the first spin, run the Re-Spin cycle to make it smooth and creamy.
• Chop the nuts small: Smaller pieces mix in better and give you a little crunch in every bite.
• Add mix-ins last: Always use the Mix-In function so the coconut flakes and nuts stay chunky instead of blending into the base.

Storing Instructions

Store leftover ice cream in the Ninja Creami pint container with the lid tightly sealed. Keep it in the freezer for up to 2–3 weeks, and if it becomes firm, simply re-spin in the Ninja Creami to bring back the creamy texture.

Ninja Cream Baskin Robbins Copycat Nutty Coconut Recipe Faqs

Can I make this ice cream without the Ninja Creami? Yes! You can use a standard freezer method. Mix the base, freeze in a shallow container, and stir every 30–60 minutes until smooth, then fold in the mix-ins.

Can I use unsweetened coconut? You can, but the ice cream will be less sweet and less flavorful. Consider adding a little extra sugar to balance the taste.

How long does it need to freeze? Freeze the pint container for at least 24 hours until fully solid before processing in the Ninja Creami.

Can I substitute nuts? Absolutely! Almonds, pecans, or even macadamia nuts work. Toast them lightly for extra crunch and flavor.

Can I make it dairy-free or keto? Yes! Substitute full-fat coconut milk for cream and milk, and use a sugar alternative to make a dairy-free or lower-carb version.
