As Shark Week approaches, it's time to elevate your celebration with our refreshing Oceanic Delight Cooler. This jaw-some treat brings together creamy ice cream, a hint of strawberry sweetness, and a splash of refreshing blue. Let's dive into the recipe and make a splash this Shark Week!

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1 – 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 small tub of white icing
  • 2 drops light blue gel food coloring
  • 4 tablespoons sugar
  • Whipped topping for topping
  • 1 cup frozen strawberries
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 10 shark gummies
  • Ice
  • Milk

Directions:

Making Shark Ice Cream:

  1. Place the heavy whipping cream in a stand mixer with the whisk attachment. Alternatively, use a hand blender with a whisk attachment, blending on low for 4 minutes and increasing speed as it thickens.
  2. Optional: Add coconut extract for extra taste.
  3. Fold in sweetened condensed milk and add 1 drop of light blue food coloring.
  4. Pour half of the mixture into a 9-inch square pan.
  5. Drop small dollops of white icing into the mixture without stirring. Top with more light blue food coloring and shark gummies for a marbled effect.
  6. Freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight.

Preparing Oceanic Delight Cooler:

  1. Blend frozen strawberries with 1/3 cup of water to create a strawberry puree.
  2. Use the puree to add a strawberry layer to the sides of the cup as you pour in the cooler mixture.
  3. In a blender, combine 3 to 4 scoops of the shark ice cream and 1 cup of ice. Adjust consistency with milk if needed.
  4. Layer the cooler mixture and strawberry puree in the cup, topping it off with whipped topping.

Finishing Touches:

  1. Mix 1 drop of light blue food coloring with sugar for a blue sugar topping.
  2. Sprinkle the blue sugar topping over the whipped topping for a delightful finishing touch.

Additional Notes:

  • For a quicker alternative, use blue sherbet and vanilla ice cream instead of making the shark ice cream from scratch.
  • Top the cooler with blue food dust for extra visual appeal.
