At any given time, I have about four cans of Trader Joe’s coconut cream in my fridge. It is my go-to dessert in a crisis. You know, the kind of crisis when you’re on a health kick, craving something sweet, and there isn’t a sweet thing to be found in your kitchen? Coconut cream makes the struggle less real.
When cold and whipped, coconut cream takes on almost the exact consistency of whipped cream, making it perfect for topping fruit. Remember those piña colada skewers I made a while back? So. Good.
Made with finely grated dark chocolate and cocoa powder, the chocolate version of this whipped coconut cream recipe is a delicious dessert addition to any menu.
