For those of you who don't eat dairy, this is a nice substitute. You can add the cacao for a different type of whipped cream. If it's too stiff add a little of the reserved coconut milk from the can to thin it out.

Ingredients For coconut whipped cream

  • 2 can
    full fat coconut milk
  • 1 tsp
    vanilla extract
  • 1/4-1/2 c
    agave syrup, icing sugar, xyla (or other sweetener)
  • 1/2 c
    cacao (optional)

How To Make coconut whipped cream

  • 1
    Chill the coconut milk in the cans for at least 2 days.
  • 2
    Chill the bowl and beaters for an hour.
  • 3
    Open the coconut milk cans and remove the white coconut milk solids from the can. Put the liquid in another container and keep for other things.
  • 4
    On low speed whip up the thick white coconut milk solids for a minute and add the vanilla and sweetener to taste. If you do use Xyla, it might be good to grind it into a fine powder with a little arrowroot powder mixed in.
  • 5
    Once the coconut milk solids are whipped, slowly add the cacao (if using) by using a spoon and stir in. Then blend the mixture with a whip on high for another minute.
  • 6
    If you find this too thick, add a little of the watery coconut milk until it suits your needs.
  • 7
    You can eliminate the cacao if you wish and make this a vanilla topping.

    Enjoy!
