Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spread coconut flakes onto a baking sheet in an even layer. Bake for 3-5 minutes until coconut is lightly golden and toasted. Keep a close eye while toasting to prevent coconut flakes from browning too quickly. Remove from oven and cool completely.

In a high speed blender, combine coconut flakes, 2 cups of coconut cream, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Blend for about 1 minute, scraping down the sides of the blender as necessary, until no chunks of coconut remain and mixture is completely smooth. Pass mixture through a double-lined cheesecloth to strain out any solids remaining.
