Tell me this doesn't look delicious. It looks like a chewy, delicious bed made of sugar, doesn't it? I wish that it was my size so that I could sleep on it. That would be nice: "sweet dreams" taken literally.
I've been pretty busy lately. I don't know why, but I had so many tests and things this week. Also, track tryouts are in a week! I'm nervous but really excited at the same time (so cliché, isn't it). I ran cross-country in the fall, but I've never run track before.
Anyways, this "pudding" (which is more like a cake sorta-ish thing) is awesome. I remember my mom used to make something similar to this before, with red beans I think. This is a Chinese recipe, but I don't know what it's called in Chinese. It's not too sweet, like a lot of Chinese desserts, and doesn't have a strong coconut flavor. It's made with only 6 ingredients: sweet rice flour, sugar, coconut milk, coconut cream, eggs, and vanilla. It only takes less than 10 minutes of work, and it'll be ready in about an hour. It's delicious served warm with some coconut ice cream, or plain and at room temperature.
Plus, this technically fulfills one of the things on my "2013" list!
Well, here's the recipe. I hope you enjoy!
Baked Coconut Pudding
