Maja Blanca (Sweet Coconut Pudding) image

This is a Filipino dessert for all occasions. Its cheap, easy to make, and when cooked right...really creamy and tasty. Its main ingredients are coconut milk and cornstarch. I usually get my own coconut milk from the actual fruit and not from store-bought canned coconut milk.

Time 45m

Yield 1 pan, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 cups coconut milk
1 cup cornstarch
1 cup white sugar or 1 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup condensed milk
3/4 cup fresh milk
3/4 cup all purpose cream
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 cup corn kernel
cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Cook 4 cups of coconut milk in a casserole at low heat.
  • 2. Mix the cornstarch and sugar into a bowl with the fresh milk and stir until the cornstarch and sugar is dissolved.
  • 3. When the coconut milk is heated, mix in the cornstarch, sugar, milk mixture.
  • 4. Add the butter and corn kernel.
  • 5. Constantly stir all the ingredients in low heat (this is important! you don't want them to cook in clumps).
  • 6. You will know that the maja blanca is already cooked when it is pasty and there is no grainy feeling on your palate once you taste it.
  • 7. Transfer the mixture into a flat glass container.
  • 8. Grate cheese on top of the maja blanca and place inside the fridge. It's tastier when its served cool.
