Ingredients
- 1 can (15 ounces) full-fat coconut milk
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon orange extract (optional)
- 4 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 4 tablespoons water
- 8 ounces pineapple tidbits, drained and cut into small cubes (optional)
Method
- Lightly grease an 8-inch (8 in) square pan and set aside.
- Whisk the cornstarch and water together in a small bowl into a smooth slurry.
- Pour the coconut milk into a medium saucepan, add the sugar, and warm over medium heat, stirring, until the sugar dissolves and the milk is steaming, about 3 minutes. Do not boil.
- Whisk the slurry again and stir it into the coconut milk. Cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or spatula, for 4 to 6 minutes until the mixture thickens to a glossy pudding that heavily coats the spoon.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and orange extracts, and the pineapple if using.
- Pour into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours until firmly set and sliceable.
- Cut into 16 squares with a knife dipped in hot water and serve chilled.
