Ingredients
Scale
2 cups coconut milk
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
Blue food coloring (a few drops)
1 cup white chocolate chips
1 tbsp coconut oil
Assorted food coloring (purple, pink, blue) for shell
Edible glitter or shimmer dust (optional)
Berry flavoring or extract (1/2 tsp)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, whisk together coconut milk, heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Add blue food coloring and stir until the desired color is achieved.
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Once churned, scoop into small balls and freeze until solid (about 2–3 hours).
In a heatproof bowl, melt white chocolate chips and coconut oil together, stirring until smooth.
Divide the melted mixture into separate bowls and color each with different food colorings (purple, pink, blue). Add berry flavoring to each batch.
Using a spoon or dipping tool, coat the frozen ice cream balls with the colorful melted candy shells.
Optional: Sprinkle with edible glitter or shimmer dust while still wet.
Place coated balls on a parchment-lined tray and freeze for another hour to set.
Serve immediately or store in the freezer until ready to enjoy.
Notes
You can adjust the intensity of the colors to match a galaxy theme.
Use a silicone mold for uniform ice cream ball shapes.
Let sit at room temperature for 2–3 minutes before serving for best texture.
