Tips:

• I love using canned coconut milk. It gives a nice creaminess and doesn't make your dishes taste like coconut but you may use any other kind of milk you like.

• Make sure your butter is softened by leaving it out on the counter for about an hour. Forgot to take it out of the fridge before baking? Just place your sticks on the stovetop when preheating your oven.

• Get creative! Try baking this in a round cake pan or even make muffins! Just be sure to adjust your cooking times accordingly.
