Directions for coconut whipped cream

Mix-by-hand option

  1. Pour the can of coconut cream into a medium-sized bowl. Add Stevia, vanilla, and lemon juice (if using).

  3. You can use it right away, or you can place it in the fridge for 1 hour to solidify.

Blender option

  1. Pour the can of coconut cream into the blender. Add stevia, vanilla, and lemon juice (if using).
