This was pretty good but I think next time, I will try and find a way to incorporate some coffee flavour, either with instant coffee or actual brewed coffee...maybe instead of the vanilla extract? not sure but i would really like to have it with some coffee flavour. I think it would be great with coconut whipped cream on top!!
Here is the link to the original recipe. (the picture is mine )
