I am searching for dessert recipes that use fresh coconut milk?

I just bought a fresh coconut and I have a recipe for making coconut milk from the juice and some of the meat too. But I haven't been able to locate any good recipes to use it. I already have the recipes for cakes, puddings, and custards. I was hoping to find something like dessert bars or something else yummy. Thanks in advance for your suggestions.I am searching for dessert recipes that use fresh coconut milk?

3/4 cup sweetened flaked coconut


3/4 cup unsweetened dried coconut


1/3 cup sweetened condensed milk


3 1/2 to 4 oz fine-quality bittersweet chocolate (preferably 70% cacao), finely chopped





Special equipment: a small offset metal spatula; 32 paper candy cups (optional)











Line bottom and 2 opposite sides of an 8-inch square metal baking pan with a sheet of wax paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on both sides.





Mix together flaked and dried coconut and condensed milk with your fingertips until combined well, then firmly press into pan in an even layer with offset spatula. Chill, uncovered, 5 minutes.





Melt chocolate in a metal bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water or in top of a double boiler, stirring until smooth. Spread chocolate evenly over coconut layer with offset spatula and chill until firm, 5 to 7 minutes.





Lift confection onto a cutting board using overhang and halve confection with a sharp knife. Sandwich halves together, coconut sides in, to form an 8- by 4-inch rectangle, then discard wax paper. Cut rectangle into 32 (1-inch) squares. Arrange paper cups (if using) on a platter and fill with candies. Chill, covered, until ready to serve.

Why would anyone vote for this recipe? It doesn't even have coconut milk in the recipe anywhere, let alone the fresh coconut milk that I asked for. Report Abuse

Ice cream. Basic recipe but instead of normal milk.





Cook your rice in it. Very nice. With 'hot-wings' or something spicy.
