Well I
had every intention of not writing today, but while on Pinterest the other day
I noticed a lot of pins of canned coconut milk turned into whip cream. I was a bit skeptical but because I love
whipped cream and so does Mr. Fireman, and because I have a sensitivity towards
dairy I decided to give it a whirl.
I bought
only one can of coconut milk (I didn't know how I would like it, so I didn't
want to waste any money buying two) I first put it in the freezer while I made
dinner, then after about 30 min I put it into the fridge for about an
hour.
When I
opened the can I was careful not to shake the can or tip it as advised by
people on Pinterest, there is supposed to be a little bit of coconut water that
separates from the cream, however mine was pure cream so I just used it all.
I put
the whole can in a mixing bowl added some vanilla, and powder sugar and mixed
it up. I didn't measure I just added
what tasted good to me. You could also
replace the powder sugar with Splenda, or stevia for a healthier mixture.
Let me
just say for someone who is not a huge fan of coconut I was worried about this,
but honestly this is my new favorite way to make whip cream. It's so yummy :). Add some strawberries and
chocolate shavings and it turns into a very decadent dessert.

Healthy? I don't know but it sure is tasty.
