To Make the Coconut Cream: Meanwhile, increase the oven temperature to 350F. Toss cup of the reserved coconut with 1 tablespoon of the confectioners' sugar on a cookie sheet and spread out in one layer. Toast on the middle rack of the oven, stirring occasionally, for 4 to 5 minutes, or until golden. Watch this carefully, since the coconut can burn quickly. Set aside.
