Ok, I'm not losing my mind... at least, if I am, this can no longer be presented as evidence. I did see a recipe that called for white chocolate, cream of coconut (the sweetened Coco Lopez type) and butter. It also contains curry powder, it's the Madras from Chocolates and Confections. I went through the book again because I kept thinking that's where I'd seen it and finally stumbled across it. I'd intended to make it minus the curry powder and see what I thought of the coconut flavor before trying to work some rum and lime into it. So now I guess I'll make a small batch along with a small batch of the buttercream and see which I like better.

Did you ever try this recipe from C&C? I hated it. But my grocery store didn’t have Coco Lopez brand, it only had Coco Real. I chucked it because I thought it was so gross. 

 

Sorry—off topic.
