About

A plant-based substitution for whipped cream. This is just as delightful when used to garnish a more complex dessert as it is paired simply with a big bowl of berries for dipping. (For this, I like to stir in a little sour cream and have a bowl of brown sugar handy—no longer dairy-free, but a decadent seasonal treat I look forward to.)

Ingredients

1 (14-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk, chilled overnight, unshaken (do not use ‘lite’ as it will not whip correctly)
1–2

Method

Open can and carefully scoop out rich coconut cream into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, or large bowl if whipping by hand with a balloon whisk. Reserve clear coconut water on bottom for another use (smoothies, curries, cooking rice, etc.). Whip on high until fluffy (about 2 minutes), or whip vigorously by hand until voluminous. Add maple syrup to taste (if using). Sto
