Ingredients

Instructions

  •  In a large nonstick pot, add rice, whole milk, coconut milk and mix until combined and cook on high heat until mixture comes to a boil.
  • Then, reduce heat to Low and let it simmer, covered with a lid, for about 12-15 minutes or until rice is very soft and tender. Be sure to stir everything together halfway through.
  • Then, mix in condensed milk, heavy cream, vanilla extract, orange zest.
  • Continue cooking (without lid) for 8-10 minutes or until pudding is thickened to your desired consistency.
  • Remove from heat and mix in shredded coconut. 
  • Then, chill in fridge for 1-2 hours or overnight until it’s nice and cold. This will also make the pudding thicker. 
  • Optional: Prior to serving, mix in about ¼-1/2 cup cold milk to make it slightly thinner and creamier, if you like. 
  • Prior to serving, garnish with toasted coconut. Enjoy!
