I had some left over coconut milk from making Thai Chicken the other night and thought it might make a great whipped cream substitute for making a sundae -- I was SO RIGHT!
- vanilla ice cream
- coconut milk
- Hershey's chocolate syrup
- sweet pecan halves (or other nut)
Put a few scoops of ice cream in a serving dish. Mix the coconut milk well then spoon on top of the ice cream. Sprinkle whole or chopped nuts on top. Drizzle with chocolate syrup.
The coconut milk doesn't really taste coconutty. It isn't as light as whipped cream, but it is as creamy. Also, it does a neat trick -- it freezes quickly and hardens sort of like Magic Shell.
Delicious!

That sounds really good! I drove by a small store today that always has flowers and some fresh fruit from someone nearby. Today the big sign said "Cold Coconuts." I know they're not local! But I'm wondering why you'd advertise cold coconuts... I never thought about them needing t be cold.
That is strange. Maybe they were complaining, or maybe it is along the lines of "tough noogie".
