Ingredients
- 4 cups Milk
- 1 cup Cooked white rice
- 1 third cup Granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Unsweetened shredded coconut
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine 3 1/2 cups of milk (reserve the remaining 1/2 cup) and cooked white rice. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture begins to steam but does not boil.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1/2 cup of milk, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and salt until smooth and lump-free.
Step 3
Gradually add the cornstarch mixture to the saucepan with the milk and rice, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
Step 4
Continue to cook and stir the mixture over medium heat until it thickens to a pudding-like consistency, about 8–10 minutes.
Step 5
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Pour the pudding into serving dishes or a large serving bowl. Allow it to cool slightly before refrigerating for at least 2 hours to set.
Step 6
To make the caramelized coconut topping, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt.
Step 7
Stir in the shredded coconut and brown sugar. Cook, stirring frequently, until the coconut turns golden brown and the sugar caramelizes, about 5–7 minutes.
Step 8
Transfer the caramelized coconut to a plate lined with parchment paper to cool. The topping will crisp up as it cools.
Step 9
Once the rice blancmange pudding has set, remove it from the refrigerator. Top each serving with a generous sprinkle of the caramelized coconut.
Step 10
Serve chilled and enjoy this creamy, tropical dessert!
