This desert is typically served during Christmas time. Personally, I never wait that long to have this yummy coco-nutty desert.
Ingredients:
4 cups coconut milk
1/2 cup cornstarch
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon orange blossom water (optional)
ground cinnamon, to sprinkle
Directions:
1. In a saucepan dissolve cornstarch in 1/4 cup coconut milk.
2. Once dissolved add the rest of the coconut milk, sugar, and salt.
3. Cook at medium-high heat stirring constantly!
4. As it thickens, lower heat until it boils thick.
5. Pour right away into wet molds, pans or cups.
6. Cool and then cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
7. Carefully separate the tembleque from the mold using a knife.
8. Turn it over unto a dish. Sprinkle with cinnamon.
