This was lovely version of rice pudding. I love coconut, so this was more than satisfying. Came out coco-nutty, creamy and the toasted coconut topping is the bomb which also makes a great munching snack on its own. I used regular coconut milk and skipped the light because I didn’t have it on hand. Also, in addition to the vanilla bean, added a bit more of vanilla extract towards the end as well as a couple of sprinklings of coconut extract. What I will do differently next time, is cook if for less time, as I like it a bit creamier. Good stuff. Thank you, ellie, for sharing.
