  1. Yum! Nice & creamy. I made it with 2TB cornstarch. I think 3 might make it pudding-like, which wouldn't be a bad thing. I'm not sure I'm so hepped up on the coconut flakes in it & might use coconut milk instead next time for the flavor. Made for NA/ME & Veggie forum's Sun & Spice Event 2/13.
     
  2. This drink was a nice yummy treat on a cold February afternoon. I omitted the coconut as I as a rule don't like lumps in my beverages. However, next time I make it, I'll add some coconut milk. Made for FEBRUARY'S SUN and SPICE EVENT!
     
  3. Rich, tasty, and soothing drink! This seemed to me like a drinkable pudding, nice and creamy with great vanilla flavor. I made half of the recipe and it was plenty for 2 servings. I loved the cinnamon on top but would probably not bother with the coconut next time. Thanks for sharing your recipe!

Hi! I'm Jen, and I'm a very beginner cook. I've never been a very adventurous eater (and am in fact rather picky), but I'm working on that. :D I've been baking with my mom for as long as I can remember and have always loved it.
