Maja Blanca with Corn

Maja Blanca is a Filipino dessert made primarily from coconut milk.  Also known as coconut pudding.  It is usually served during fiestas and other holidays, especially Christmas.

I made it yesterday morning just for our snack here at home! :)







4  cups coconut milk
1  cup cornstarch
14  oz. condensed milk
3/4  cup fresh milk
3/4  cup granulated sugar
15  oz. whole sweet kernel corn
5  tablespoons grated coconut

1.  Pour the coconut milk in a cooking pot and bring to a boil.
2.  Add the sugar, condensed milk, and whole sweet kernel corn then stir until all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
3.  Simmer for 8 minutes.
4.  Combine fresh milk and cornstarch then whisk until the cornstarch is diluted.
5.  Pour the fresh milk and cornstarch mixture in the cooking pot and stir thoroughly.
6.  Allow to cook while stirring until the mixture reaches your desired thickness.
7.  Pour the  mixture in a serving tray then arrange and flatten the top using a flat tool such as wooden spatula.
8.  Cool down then refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
9.  Garnish with toasted grated coconut.
10.  Serve cold.
