I haven't a clue, but you're a woman after my own heart.

I bought some of this by mistake, thinking it was coconut milk (for curries etc). I'm wondering if I can use it up for a cake or biscuits as I have guests for tea tomorrow.

Does anyone have any recipes or should I just dollop the stuff in a basic sponge or biscuit mixture?

It is incredibly sweet and tastes more of sugar than coconut, rather like condensed milk. There's about half a tin left as I have been eating some of it, cause I couldn't resist. (it made me feel a bit sick, actually!)

I used a tablespoon of it in pumpkin soup because that was what I opened the tin for, but couldn't use any more because it would have made it too sweet.

Recipes/advice please!
