    Tips and Variations:

    • If you are lucky enough to have fresh pandan leaves in your own garden, you can use that for this recipe. Just place the leaves in a food processor or juicer and extract the juice.
    • Make sure that you whip your cream or all-purpose cream very well. It is essential that it creates fluffy peaks since it will attribute to the creaminess of your buko pandan ice cream.

    Ingredients You’ll Need:

    • coconut meat 
    • all-purpose cream or heavy whipping cream
    • condensed milk
    • fresh coconut cream 
    • buko pandan flavoring
    • vanilla extract, optional

    If using frozen coconut meat skip to step 2. 

    First, drain the coconut water form the coconut and set the coconut water aside. Slice coconut in half and scrape off coconut meat using a grater.  2 coconuts yield about 2 cups of coconut meat.

    Add cream in a large bowl:
