I should have been born on the tropical island as I love coconut. It is one of my favorite food, although I have a son and a granddaughter, who hate it how I like it. I recently bought a coconut ice-cream, between its components. When the 6letá granddaughter asked for some ice cream, I handed her the bowl. She took one bite, snurled nose and said, "the ice cream has a coconut, isn't it?" she handed the dish back to me. I can't believe that my child will hate me so many coconut genes! All I can say is that he doesn't know what she is missing. Whereas, in that I love so many coconut, I have many recipes that use it. In this article I share one for our award-winning coconut cake, and one for frozen strawberry pie with coconut crust. Yum, yum!
