Coconut kiwi ice cream – Only 4 ingredients for a refreshing fruity ice cream that includes marshmallow cream! A delicious tropical summer treat. This no-churn, easy homemade recipe means no ice cream machine required.
Summer is made even better with easy, homemade ice cream.
Have you heard of marshmallow cream ice cream? While I usually have some on hand for a good fluffer-nutter sandwich or s’mores, this was the first I heard about using it for a frozen treat.
Just 4 ingredients, super easy to whip up, all you have to do is have the willpower to wait until it freezes.
I did not toast the shredded coconut like the original recipe did, but you can try that if you’d like the added flavor.
As it is, it makes me feel like I should be sitting on an island somewhere, staring at the ocean…
I’ll admit I was a little skeptical of kiwi ice cream to begin with, as I’m much more of a chocolate, chocolate and an extra side of chocolate kinda girl.
But this was a great fruity flavor for those hot summer days!
If you’re looking for extra tropical kiwi vibes, pair it with this kiwi lemonade!

I love making home-made ice cream, too. I actually just made one that I'll share next week, and my first try was several months ago. This flavor looks amazing! I love the coconut and kiwi combination, so perfect for the summer!
