This is one of the recipes that remind me of my childhood. This pudding is a very common Puerto Rican dessert. To describe it I would say that is a creamy coconut pudding, topped with cinnamon and delicious. Ingredients:
7 ounces cream of coconut (approx 1/2 can) |
2 1/2 cups milk |
1/2 cup cornstarch |
4 tablespoons sugar (or to taste) |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
ground cinnamon, and or flaked coconut |
Directions:
1. In a saucepan combine milk and cream of coconut,corn starch,vanilla and sugar mix very well.
2. Stir constantly on medium high until mixture begins to boil and gets thick.
3. Let boil a couple more minutes still keep stirring, then you can either pour into individual dessert cups or a mold.
4. Let cool on tabletop, then refrigerate.
5. Top with garnish.
6. Enjoy!
