Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup coconut cream
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 2/3 cup Swerve Confectioners
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp coconut extract
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 4 oz cream cheese (softened)
  • 2 tbsp heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Toasted coconut (for garnish)

Method
 

  1. Bring 1 cup of coconut cream to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Whisk 2 egg yolks with ⅓ cup Swerve Confectioners and 1/8 tsp salt until smooth. Slowly temper yolks with half of the hot coconut cream.
  3. Whisk the tempered yolk mixture back into the hot cream. Cook for 4-5 minutes, whisking continuously, until thickened. Remove from heat, whisk in 1 1/2 tsp coconut extract, and stir in 1/2 cup shredded coconut. Cool completely.
  4. Beat 4 oz softened cream cheese until smooth. Beat in the remaining ⅓ cup Swerve Confectioners, then 2 tbsp heavy cream and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract until combined.
  5. Gently fold the cooled pudding mixture into the cream cheese mixture until no streaks remain. Chill for 1 hour to firm up, then sprinkle with toasted coconut for garnish.

Notes

– Tempering the egg yolks: When incorporating the hot coconut cream into the egg yolks, ensure you do it slowly while continuously whisking to prevent the eggs from scrambling. This step is crucial for a smooth custard.
– For a richer coconut flavor, lightly toast the shredded coconut before adding it to the pudding mixture. This deepens its aroma and adds a subtle nutty note.
– Storage: Store leftover coconut cream dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. It thickens further upon chilling.
