Puree it into milk and use as a marinade for fish. I'll search for the recipe and post it here soon. You can also make a awsome coconut rice pudding with the coconut milk.

I'd puree it into milk too. I love using coconut milk for sauces as a replacement for cream or milk. Or add in a little bit of green curry paste and fresh taragon, its great over salmon or seafood crepes
I just watched Alton Brown and he was eating some coconut pies. He hinted about the ingredients and I think I may have to try it.
Basically, roll out a piece of pastry dough, say 8"x10" rectangular. Into that was placed a coconut mix. this was one of his road food things so he wasn't cooking.
He figures along with the coconut(quite a bit) some almond extract, and sweetened condensed milk was added making a thick mixture. It was piled onto the dough which was then folded over and sealed on itself then baked.
I think a bit of cinnamon would work well in with it too.

It would go well with a glass of chilled Brinley Gold Coffee Rum.
