Add a photoToday is Presidents' Day where we honor the legacies of great U.S. Presidents, and why not, the the 44th president, Hawaii-born Barack Obama. Haupia is a favorite dessert of the Hawaiian islands and is ever present at luaus and celebrations where food is served.
It is a very easy coconut-based recipe. Unlike most cakes and desserts, there is no baking required. Since this is a special day, I've chosen to make it a little more fancy by topping it with toasted coconut flakes and cocktail cherries. Here's to Presidents' Day!
Ингредиенты
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
- 1 3/4 tsp cornstarch
- A pinch or two of salt
- 1 tbsp white sugar
- 1/2 cup coconut flakes
- 6 pcs. cocktail cherries
Инструкции
- Heat a small skillet over medium heat. Add coconut flakes and toast until slightly brown.
- Remove from heat and set aside. In a medium sauce pan, combine cornstarch, sugar and salt.
- Pour in 1/4 of the coconut milk and stir until smooth.
- Add the rest of the coconut milk and bring to a quick boil. Reduce heat to low and let simmer, stirring constantly until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Pour mixture into a baking dish or casserole and place in the refrigerator for at least an hour.
- When ready to serve, cut into 6 individual slices and garnish each slice with toasted coconut flakes and a cherry.
