In a medium saucepan, whisk together coconut milk, sugar, cornstarch, and salt until smooth.
Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
2. Cook until thickened
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring continuously.
Cook for 3–5 minutes until the pudding thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
3. Add flavor
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
4. Chill
Pour pudding into individual serving cups or a bowl.
Cover with plastic wrap (touching the surface to prevent a skin from forming).
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until fully set.
5. Serve
Garnish with toasted coconut, chocolate shavings, or fresh fruit.
Serve chilled for a creamy, tropical dessert. 😋
💡 Tips
For extra creaminess, add 2–3 tbsp of heavy cream while cooking.
You can use sweetened condensed milk for a richer, sweeter version — reduce the sugar slightly.
Add a pinch of cardamom or cinnamon for a fragrant twist.
