This recipe combines the richness of vanilla custard with the airy texture of whipped cream, topped with a sprinkle of toasted coconut. Perfect for warm summer days or festive winter gatherings, this snowy pudding is sure to impress your family and friends.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large egg yolks
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut, toasted

Directions

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Whisk well to combine.
  2. Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a simmer.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks. Gradually pour about 1/2 cup of the hot milk mixture into the yolks, whisking constantly.
  4. Pour the yolk mixture back into the saucepan. Cook, whisking constantly, for another 2 minutes, until thickened.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Transfer the pudding to a bowl and let cool for 10 minutes.
  6. Cover the pudding with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate until chilled, about 2 hours.
  7. In a chilled mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
  8. Gently fold the whipped cream into the chilled pudding until well combined.
  9. Divide the pudding mixture into serving dishes or glasses.
  10. Top each serving with a generous sprinkle of toasted coconut.
  11. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
  12. Enjoy the cool and creamy goodness of your homemade snowy pudding!
