Coconut Butter Spread

We have been vegan for some time now and are 70 years old and feel great. We live at 10,000 feet & no problems at all. It's an amazing way to live and we love the food. We made the Swiss Chard and white bean soup and can't get enough.

I have a question. I've been reading about the health benefits of coconuts. I found some canned coconut milk and have heard one can make a coconut butter spread from it. I can't seem to find a recipe. I would like to lose the "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter". Seems like substituting coconut milk or oil would be a very good thing to do.

Do you know how make coconut butter spread?

I did mix a bit of peanut butter with the milk and put it on bread with a bit of jam. It tasted just like a PB&J. Again I'm amazed.
