Description

Coconut Chocolate Pudding is an easy and rich dessert from A Cozy Kitchen.

Ingredients

  • 1 can Coconut Milk, 14 Oz
  • 3 Tablespoons Maple Syrup
  • 1 dash Salt
  • ¼ cups Cornstarch
  • 3 Tablespoons Cocoa Powder
  • ½ cups Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Preparation

Shake the can of coconut milk vigorously for a few seconds before opening. In a heavy saucepan, bring 1 1/4 cups of the coconut milk, maple syrup, and the salt to a simmer over low heat.

While that is heating, in a separate bowl whisk together the remaining coconut milk, corn starch, and cocoa powder. It will look like a smooth chocolate frosting.

When the coconut milk and maple syrup mixture has started simmering, turn the heat down to low. Slowly add in the chocolate mixture while vigorously whisking it the whole time. Keep whisking until the pudding thickens up a bit, about a minute.

Remove the saucepan from the heat and continue whisking while it is cooling for about a minute. Whisk in the chocolate chips and vanilla and keep stirring until the pudding is smooth. Transfer to a bowl or bowls and place in the refrigerator to chill thoroughly. To prevent a skin from forming, press plastic up against the surface of the pudding.

I made this over the weekend and it turned out wonderful and everyone wanted the recipe.

I used the full-fat coconut milk and substituted bitter chocolate for the semi-sweet and it tasted wonderfully decadent.

ok, the flavor was delicious! however, it didn’t set up. i finally decided to freeze it like fudge pops. :O) i’m wondering now if a little more starch would have helped.

You can absolutely use lite coconut milk! That’s actually what I used when I cooked it and it was heaven!

This looks wonderful. Do you think it would work with light coconut milk or is the regular fat content essential?

Very tasty! There was not a lot of coconut taste in ours but when I wasn’t looking the milk mixture started to boil which may have reduced the flavour. Definitely will make it again.

this is def one of my new favorite puddings – the coconut flavour is so subtle but lends a v nice flavour to it!

Very simple and tasty recipe. I followed the directions exactly and it set perfectly. The coconut flavor was very subtle.

This had great chocolatey taste and a hint of coconut (perhaps because I used light coconut milk?) I used 1 T. of cornstarch because another reviewer mentioned that it didn’t set up, and next time I might use 3/4 T. instead. The most important thing that I did horribly, horribly wrong though, was not to mix the cornstarch in well enough. It looked like it was incorporated, but it was NOT and my pudding was very lumpy. Don’t be like me! Mix well!

This was super quick and easy to make and wonderful! It made our dairy free house very happy! Very rich, very chocolatey and very good.
