Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 cups coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a medium saucepan, whisk together the coconut milk, sugar, and cornstarch until the cornstarch is fully dissolved.
  2. Cook Mixture: Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until it thickens to a pudding-like consistency. This should take about 8-10 minutes.
  3. Cool and Chill: Remove from heat and let the pudding cool slightly. Pour it into serving dishes, cover with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.

Notes

  • Stir constantly during cooking to prevent lumps and ensure even thickening.
  • Use full-fat coconut milk for a richer texture and flavor.
  • For added flavor, you can include a splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of salt.
  • Serve topped with fresh fruit or toasted coconut for extra texture and taste.
