COCONUT MILK WHIPPED TOPPING

This is the perfect, healthy whipped topping for all your favorite desserts. Try it over a bowl of fresh   berries, for a delicious summer treat. It has been taste tested and kid approved by my grandchildren.

      • 1 14-ounce can of coconut cream or full fat coconut milk (Make sure to buy organic. I recommend the red label Thai Kitchen brand.)
      • 1-2 tablespoons of pure vanilla extract
      • 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon
      • Additional flavoring options: local honey, finely ground coffee, cocoa powder, peanut butter… anything you can think of!

1. Chill the coconut milk in the fridge overnight.
2. The next day, remove the can of coconut milk from the fridge. Open the can and scoop out the solid coconut milk and place it in a blender or food processor.
3. Add the vanilla, cinnamon and a few teaspoons of the coconut milk liquid from the can (keep the extra liquid for smoothies).
4. Blend for a few moments until light and fluffy.

I keep a couple cans of coconut milk in my refrigerator at all times. This way I’m always prepared if I need to whip up a last minute dessert.
