Thai Ri-Coco-Mango

This dessert was inspired by a dish brought to fellowship lunch at our church... and named by Josh. It has less fat and much less sugar than the original. This is a light and cooling dessert, a perfect finisher for a traditional Thai meal, or whenever you want to make an elegant impression with just a few ingredients and very little time. Serves four.
2 cups dry rice (even brown rice will stick together well if you pack it together while its still hot), cooked according to package directions
1 can Thai Kitchen coconut milk
3 Tbsp Truvia sweetener blend, or your choice of sweetener
1/4 tsp vanilla
1 bag frozen mango, thawed
Shaved unsweetened coconut, toasted (for garnish, optional)
Press freshly cooked rice into desired mold, like a bundt pan or medium bowl, or smaller bowls or bundt pans for individual servings. Chill in the refrigerator or let cool on the counter until completely cool. Blend the coconut milk, sweetener, and vanilka in blender on low until well mixed. Transfer rice molds to serving plate by placing the plate over the mold, then flipping them quickly. Rice should cone right out. Pour coconut milk mixture over rice, top with mango and toasted coconut of using, and serve.
