Try following Ray Wenderlich's tutorial:

You'll find you need to visit a URL like https://github.com/cocos2d/cocos2d-iphone/tarball/release-1.0.0-beta-reorder-sprite to get the source, then unzip it wherever you like. Then, as Wenderlich says, you 'Open up a Terminal window to the directory you downloaded Cocos2D to, and enter the following command: ./install_template.sh'.

That's the installation process. When you open XCode, you'll see some new templates to create projects from. The rest of Wenderlich's tutorial shows you how to create a simple Cocos2D game.
