No, they are not. Coconut cream is a product made from the fat solids of coconut milk. As coconut milk sits, the solids rise to the top, creating a thick substance similar to dairy cream! Cream of coconut is coconut cream that's been sweetened and thickened even more. It's similar to sweetened condensed milk but with a real coconut flavor. Make sure to use cream of coconut in this recipe. NOT coconut cream, or you'll get a very different result.
