Serve with fresh fruit of your choice and some toasted coconut. Make one large cake if that is easier for you. It will set in just a few hours so can easily be made in the morning. You could swap out some of the cream and replace it with more coconut milk, but personally I like it as it is. So don't be nervous about a bit of experimentation - you may surprise yourself.
