Whipped Coconut Cream

Directions
Place all the ingredients except the whipped coconut cream and the amaretto in a blender, blend for 30 seconds or until smooth. Pour into a saucepan and heat to desired temperature.

If using, add in the amaretto, pour into small mugs and top with the Coconut Whipped Cream; wrap your hands around the mug, breathe deep and enjoy.

A note about the coconut milk and whipped coconut cream:

Coconut cream makes the most amazing whipped cream – it’s luscious, thick and dreamy! And it’s a good fat so there is no feeling guilty. I keep a can in my fridge at all times just in case.

Follow my recipe for how to make the Whipped Coconut Cream here. Use the remaining liquid in the can for the recipe above.
