You know I’m cuckoo for coconut, right? I love this recipe because it makes just enough of sorbet (so you can’t get into too much trouble) from one can of coconut milk. I CAN NOT TELL YOU HOW SUBLIME THE TASTE OF THIS IS! Sorry for screaming–it is so amazingly good, creamy, and so easy to make. For all my coconut lovers out there–(And you know who you are) I beg of you to make this. If you want to take it to another level you could top it off with a little chocolate syrup drizzle and chopped almonds if you want an almond joy type of taste. This recipe would also make great ice pops; just double the recipe.
