• On a chilled large round plate or platter arrange the scoops of ice cream so that they make a pile in the center of the plate.
• You may use more ice cream or less, up to you.

COCONUT BREAD PUDDING FROM THE RAINFOREST CAFE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F
• Line bottom of a 10 x 13 x 3 inch pan with half of the white bread. Evenly sprinkly half of the julienne apricots and half of the shredded coconut over the white bread. Top that with the remaining bread cubes and then the remaining apricots and coconut. Distribute evenly. In a sauce pan, heat milk, coconut cream, vanilla and granulated sugar until the sugar completely dissolves and the milk is tepid but not hot. Stir occasionally. Remove from heat. In a separate mixing bowl, beat the eggs, then temper them by slowly adding 1 cup of warm milk mixture while stirring. Slowly pour the egg/milk mixture back in the warm milk and stir until well incorporated. Ladle the mixture over the bread, making sure all the bread gets moist. Cover the foiland bake in a water bath for 1 hour. Remove foil and bake for another 5-10 minutes until golden.

CONFETTI VEGGIE SLAW (RAINFOREST CAFE)

Steps:

• Combine all the veggies in a large bowl. I use my mandolin to cut everything since there is so much julienning to do. In a small bowl, mix vinegar, sugar, oil, salt & pepper. Pour over veggies. Cover & marinate in the refrigerator. We will eat it right away, but as it sits the veggies soak up the flavors.
