These are so yummy! You can color the coconut by adding a few drops of food coloring to the coconut and mixing it together. I made pink ones for a girlfriend's baby shower. Everyone loved them.02/16/05

Haven't tried it yet, but looks like it could be adapted to a vegetarian diet. Just use French vanilla frozen tofu dessert instead of the regular dairy-based ice cream. Will definitely try this recipe this holiday season.11/30/04
