    Put a can of coconut milk in the fridge overnight. Next day, take it out and open it up. You should see a layer of cream on top. Scoop the cream off the top without getting any of the liquid on the bottom. Whip the cream with an electric mixer for 5 minutes or so until peaks will stand. Fold in some melted dark chocolate (I recommend 70% or higher) to form a mousse. Serve with fresh berries for a great dessert. I suppose honey, raw sugar or even Stevia could be added to sweeten it up a little.

    The remaining liquid from the bottom of the can should be used in a smoothie or whatever.

    I found this recipe on marksdailyapple.com.

    Oooooh, I must give this a try! I'm lactose intolerant, so I sometimes use Cool Whip Lite, but I always feel a guilty because it's really not food!

    I bet you could just flip over the can and use a church key to punch a hole and drain out the coconut water before opening the can all the way to get out the fatty cream....

    I use it for just about everything except for plain drinking. I'm like you that and almond milk I can't take plain, yuck!

    It's good on its own, over rice, or over couscous.

    I would use it in my ViSalus Shake to make a healthy supplement shake. Go visit my website and watch the video. If you want to lose weight the right way. www.yvp512.myvi.net .

    Pina Colada shake
    2 scoops ViSalus shake
    8 - 12 oz of coconut milk
    4 pieces of fresh pineapple
    5-8 pieces of ice
    Pulse your Blender/Mixer or Ninja mixer

    Delicious Shake that's less then 2 bucks. So healthy for you. No dyes, preservatives, chemicals or addatives. Just yummy. It's smooth, creamy, and smells and tastes like cake mix. Go and try it. Yvette P. Stevenson
