Sweet Coconut Cream (Serves: 6 to 8)

This versatile and delicious delight is completely dairy free. Enjoy it in a fruit parfait, spoon it over fresh pineapple slices, or dollop it onto warm fruit compote. Chilling ahead of time is optional; this step makes for a creamier, thicker product.

Ingredients:
1 15-ounce can organic coconut milk
2 tablespoons agave nectar (or to taste)

Instructions: Shake the coconut milk can and place in the refrigerator to chill several hours or overnight, if desired. Remove milk from the can and combine with agave nectar to taste.
