Cook's Tips:

Use full fat coconut cream or coconut milk (not light). You need the fat in order to get the creamy texture. Make sure the coconut cream/milk is chilled when making the whipped cream. Do not let it sit out at room temperature.

Different brands of coconut milk may perform differently in this recipe. We have found success with Thai Kitchen® Coconut Milk (unsweetened) and Thai Kitchen® Coconut Cream. (Thai Kitchen is a registered trademark of Simply Asia Foods, Inc.)

*Different brands of coconut milk have varying levels of sweetness, so add the powdered sugar to taste.
