Decoration
- 1 cup whipping cream
- 1 1/2 tablespoons Imperial Sugar Extra Fine Granulated Sugar

Directions
- Bring milk to a boil. Add coconut, boil 2 minutes and remove from heat. Cover with a lid and steep for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight.

- Place pan into an ice bath and stir occasionally. Once mixture has nearly reached room temperature it can be transferred into serving glasses or bowl.
- Divide into serving vessels and place in refrigerator.
- To finish, whip cream, sugar, and vanilla to firm peaks and using a piping bag fitted with a large star tip pipe rosettes on surface.
- Decorate with pecan halves and coconut.
