Coconut cream, from what I understand, is thicker - made with more coconut and less of the coconut water. Sometimes coconut cream is sweetened (usually labelled as cream of coconut). You could definitely use coconut cream, but I may use about half of what I call for here, and then see if you need to dilute it or if the flavor is too strong! It will probably just make it richer and creamier :)

This sounds seriously delicious! (is coconut cream the same as coconut milk?)
