I absolutely adore coconut cream pie. The following is a tasty warm beverage for coconut cream pie hot chocolate. While August may not be the best time to sample, you can always save the recipe for a warm winter's evening. Once you have a taste, you will be dreaming up occasions where you can serve and enjoy. It may even become a new Christmas morning tradition!





Coconut Cream Pie Hot Chocolate
(Serves 4)

Ingredients:

• 3 cups whole milk
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 1/2 teaspoons coconut extract
• 1 package (11 oz) white chocolate chips (I prefer Ghirardelli)
• Whipped cream
• Shredded, sweetened coconut

Instructions:

Heat milk, cream and extract in a heavy saucepan. Whisk in chips and combine until smooth. Pour mixture into mugs and top with whipped cream and coconut. Serve and enjoy!



Note: This treat is equally delicious as a chocolate coconut drink as well!
