This recipe is perfect and is from Puerto Rico is my personal recipe and I am so happy to share with you, please try this original recipe but you can vary according to your taste, for example: You can use coconut extract instead of vanilla extract if you want a more intense flavor of coconut. You can also change the condensed milk for coconut cream. Remember that when I say in ingredients: coconut milk you need not confuse coconut cream with coconut milk. Coconut cream is pre-sweetened coconut milk, coconut milk is just coconut milk does not carry direct sugar. The names can get with these Coconut Milk at the supermarket.
