Now I know Labor Day has come and gone and we’ve briskly ushered our way into pumpkin everything, but there’s some treats I like to have any time of the year. And that includes this homemade coconut whipped cream! Don’t be fooled by the light coconut flavor, this topping is good year round.
This whipped cream is our family’s favorite! Plus, it’s so nice to be able to enjoy a sweet treat without all of the yucky ingredients that store bought brands like to hide in theirs.
We are swiftly approaching a dessert heavy season and this whipped cream is perfect for all of it! Put it on some berries. Add a little extra something to a piece of pie. Top off your coffee or hot cocoa. Or eat it by the spoonful. I promise I won’t judge! It’s just that good!

You can save the liquid part and use it for smoothies!
STEP 2
