Time for some Homemade Almond Joy Ice Cream to cool down during these hot summer months! No machine is needed for this easy-to-make ice cream recipe that uses International Delight’s Almond Joy creamer! Sooooo good!
You guys might have figured it out already but I’m here to admit that I’m a total coconut-aholic. When I’m not making coconut treats for my family, I’m dreaming up ways to spoil my dad with yummy coconut recipes because he loves coconut even more than me!
If you’re a true coconut lover it’s pretty hard to resist the sweet coconut flavor of an Almond Joy. Coconut, chocolate, crunchy almonds….count me in! I’ll take Almond Joy flavor anyway I can get and lately I’ve been finding ways to sneak in some of my very favorite International Delight Almond Joy creamer into homemade treats. It’s so easy! Of course, there are over 20 fantastic flavors to choose from and I’m not ashamed to say I’ve tried at least 8 so far. I’ve got my work cut out for me to get through them all 🙂
So, do you remember when I shared a recipe for Cherry Cheesecake “Magic” Ice Cream a couple of weeks back? You know, the kind that doesn’t require a machine? Yeah. Pretty darn fantastic if you ask me 🙂 Well, I started thinking about the International Delight Creamers and was crossing my fingers that I could use some to really amp up some homemade ice cream. I mean talk about some fabulous concentrated flavor!
To really make the ice cream stand out as ALMOND JOY ICE CREAM, I swirled in some hot fudge topping and sliced almonds. You can top all of this goodness with some coconut flakes, hot fudge sauce, and more almonds if desired, or just swirl it into the ice cream. Either way would be amazing. Seriously. Amazing.
I was so excited to try the ice cream that I must have pulled it out of the fridge 3 or 4 times before it was really set up. I can’t remember the last time I was so anxious to eat ice cream! When it was finally time, I pulled out the container and got myself a spoon. Took a bite. Took another bite. And then just sighed.
People. No joke. This ice cream is RIDICULOUS. So, SO good! Now that I know how easy it was to add amazing flavor to my homemade ice cream you can bet your bottom dollar that I will be making all sorts of ice creams with ID Creamers. What an incredibly easy way to make delicious ice cream at home!

This is perfect. I love almond joys and bought the creamer. I however, do not really care for it in my coffee. This is awesome because now I know exactly what to use it for! Thank you for helping me not waste money!

I am in love with your photos (all of them) but now I am a goner with this one of the almond joy ice cream. The only thing I am in South America (yes your fans are world wide) and I haven’t seen the creamer here as of yet. I just can’t wait until I’m state side ( a year) I want this now. Please is there a substitute I could use. Please, I beg you help me. I am licking the screen I must make this soon. Help please Trish!
Trish - Mom On Timeout says
You are too sweet Shandra! Okay so this is what I would do. I would substitute coconut milk for the creamer and add some shredded coconut to the mix as well just to make sure you really get the coconut flavor in there. Keep everything else the same and you should be good to go! Good luck!
shandra says
Thanks Trish for responding so quickly. I’m going to the market today to buy what I need to make this ice cream. What a great idea to substitute, didn’t think of it all…I guess that’s why you are the mastermind of this site. So thanks again I look forward to enjoying this super yummy and easy cold treat.

I’m sure it will turn out delicious Shandra! Thanks for stopping by!
