👩🍳 Instructions
1. Prepare the creamy base
In a saucepan, mix the coconut milk, regular milk, sugar, cornstarch, vanilla, and salt. Stir well before turning on the heat so the cornstarch dissolves completely.
Place over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens into a smooth, creamy pudding.
👉 It should coat the back of a spoon and feel silky, not grainy.
Once ready, pour it into a glass dish or serving bowl and set aside to cool slightly.
2. Make the caramelized coconut topping
In a separate pan, melt the butter (or coconut oil) over medium heat. Add the grated coconut and sugar, stirring continuously until it becomes golden brown and fragrant.
This will form a delicious caramelized layer with a slightly crunchy texture.
3. Assemble the dessert
Gently spread the caramelized coconut mixture over the creamy layer. Smooth it out with a spoon.
Allow it to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
🍽️ Serving Suggestions
This creamy coconut dessert is best served cold, allowing the flavors to blend beautifully.
You can serve it:

- Topped with toasted almonds or pistachios
- Or with a few slices of fresh mango or pineapple for an exotic touch
💡 Tips for Success
✅ Stir constantly while cooking the cream to avoid lumps.
