No-Bake Coconut Pudding with Lychee Jelly

This simple and creamy pudding is a perfect canvas for the sweet, chewy jelly. It's a no-bake dessert that's both elegant and effortless.

Ingredients:

• 1 (13.5 oz) can full-fat coconut milk
• 1/4 cup sugar (or to taste)
• 2 tbsp cornstarch
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup Lychee Coconut Jelly
• Optional Garnish: Toasted coconut flakes, fresh lychee fruit, or mint leaves

Instructions:

1. Create the Base: In a small saucepan, whisk together about 1/4 cup of the coconut milk with the cornstarch until smooth.
2. Heat the Rest: Add the remaining coconut milk, sugar, and vanilla extract to the saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens to a pudding-like consistency (about 5-7 minutes). Do not let it boil vigorously.
3. Chill: Remove from heat and pour the pudding into individual serving bowls or a single large dish. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until fully set.
4. Add the Jelly: Just before serving, top the chilled pudding with a generous spoonful of the Lychee Coconut Jelly.
5. Garnish & Serve: Garnish with toasted coconut flakes or fresh fruit for a beautiful finish.

Tips and Variations:

• Balance Flavors: The jelly has a sweet and distinct flavor. Pair it with ingredients that complement it, like citrus (lime, lemon), other tropical fruits (mango, pineapple), or creamy bases (coconut milk, yogurt) to prevent the flavors from clashing.
• Embrace Texture: The jelly's primary appeal is its unique chewy texture. Use it in recipes where this texture can stand out, such as in drinks or creamy desserts, rather than in something like a baked good where it would simply melt.
• Garnish is Key: The jelly cubes look beautiful. Use them as a visual garnish on top of desserts, drinks, and fruit salads to add an appealing touch.
• Storage: Store the jelly and any desserts you make with it in the refrigerator. The cubes are best when they are chilled and firm.
