[edit | edit source]- 1 can (16 oz) of coconut milk
- 1 can (16 oz) of coconut cream
- ½ cup heavy whipping cream
- ¼ cup cornstarch or rice flour
- ½ tsp orange blossom water (optional)

Procedure
[edit | edit source]- Put sugar, coconut milk, coconut cream, and. salt, into a saucepan. Cook until sugar devolves and the milk starts to simmer.
- Mix 3 tablespoons or more of cold heavy whipping cream into the corn starch. Whip until all the cornstarch is diluted but still thick. You want a smooth thick paste with no lumps.
- When milk starts to simmer, add the remaining heavy whipping cream and cornstarch mixture into the saucepan.
- Keep the heat on low and stir constantly until the pudding thickens.
- Pour into pudding cups or small bowls.
- Cool in the fridge for 2 hours.
- To serve, flip the pudding bowls onto a plate to remove the pudding, then sprinkle cinnamon on top.
