My new favorite thing: coconut cream

When you refrigerate a can of coconut milk (must be the full fat kind) it the rich fatty cream separates from the liquid.  You can then open the can and scoop out the cream which tastes light and fluffy like whipped cream with a slight coconut flavor.  I'm already dreaming up ways to use it.  I'm thinking if you whip it up with sugar and some vanilla extract it can be used just like whipped cream on strawberries, ice cream, cake etc.  I discovered this while making the coconut tres leche cake from Viva Vegan!  More to come on that cake later.  But for now, let me know if you've ever used coconut cream and how.
