Instructions
Let the can sit in the fridge overnight before using.
Open up the can and dump out the water. The thick, white cream, should be separate from the water.
Scrape the coconut milk (only the white cream) into a large bowl.
Add in the vanilla if you're using it.
Using a handheld mixer, whip the coconut milk until fluffy (2-3 minutes). Use immediately.

Notes
Make sure not to add liquid sweeteners to the recipe. This will make it so the coconut whip will not stay firm but will turn runny instead.Likewise, make sure the coconut cream is fully solid before whipping. If the cream is soft, it won’t fluff up.Use the coconut whip immediately. If stored in the fridge, it will re-harden, and you'll need to whip it again.One serving is two tablespoonsHack: When you're buying the coconut milk, shake the can. If there's only a bit of liquid sloshing you should be good, as it means there's solid white coconut cream and the water is separated. If the whole can is sloshing, it won't work as the coconut part isn't separated and won't harden enough to whip.
