Vegan Peanut Butter Cream

My favorite peanut butter is Cream-Nut Natural Peanut Butter manufactured by Koeze Company in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The only ingredients are Virginia peanuts and sea salt. The Chocolate Mousse post has serving ideas for this recipe.

Peanut Butter Cream
original recipe is from Vegetarian Times. I changed it to be easier to prepare.

1 13.5 oz can coconut milk
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 - 1 cup water depending on how thick and sweet you want it.

Place all ingredients in blender and blend until smooth. Place in fridge until cream has set up. Serve with chocolate mousse or anything else good with peanut butter. You can also freeze it in ice cube trays then process 1/2 recipe with 1/2 cup coconut milk for ice cream. I skip that step because I think it tastes great frozen and then eaten as it thaws.
