The Bounty has always been around the middle of my favorite chocolate bars list - I don't love it but it is definitely tasty. I don't know if I've ever bought it in a store on its own but its certainly one of the ones to grab from a box of Celebrations (not to be confused with Cadbury Favorites). For those that don't know, The Bounty consists of a desiccated coconut and sweet filling covered in chocolate. It appears that it was once sold worldwide but is no longer sold in the US. I was delighted when I came across this recipe and the result was a tasty choco-coconut flavor. It's also 'no churn' which means no ice cream machine is needed.
Yield ~ 1 litre / 1 quart

Ready to get serious about your ice cream making?
The 'no churn' method is great for occasional batches but if you want to get serious about your ice cream making I suggest you invest in an ice cream maker designed for home use.
The two ice cream makers I recommend are the Cuisinart ICE-70 and the Breville BCI600 XL. Click the images below to read more about those two machines or check out my complete guide to ice cream makers to see all the options and read the pros and cons of each.

Notes
- The result was nice but its not one of my stand out favorites. It also doesn't perfectly resemble the chocolate bar, although that's sometimes a difficult feat to achieve so I won't hold it against them too much.
- The recipe calls for Lindt chocolate flakes which I'm sure would be delicious but alas I couldn't find any in my local shops so I used another brand of chocolate and grated it to create the flakes which seemed to work fine
