Note: 

1. Originally I made this with 1/2 cup maple syrup and 3/4 cup coconut milk. 
2. 2nd time I made this with 3/4 cup maple syrup and 1/2 cup coconut milk. It was perfect, but baby asked me to increase the sweetness, so I modified it with 1 cup maple syrup and 1/4 cup coconut milk. I have not yet made this in this ratio.
