Coconut and Tropical Fruit Dessert This can also be made with other fruits, just make sure they are not too moist. I have also made this with dried blueberries, cranberries, and cherries with tasty results.
2-1/2 cups lite soy milk 2 14-ounce cans lite coconut milk 1-1/2 cups cornstarch 1 cup sugar, or more to taste 1/2 cup grated fresh or dried coconut 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh papaya 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh mango 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh or canned pineapple 1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts
In a large saucepan, combine soy milk, coconut milk, cornstarch, and sugar. Whisk well until cornstarch is completely dissolved. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wire whisk, until mixture boils and thickens. Remove from heat. Add coconut, papaya, mango, pineapple, and walnuts. Mix well. Spoon mixture into an 11 x 13-inch glass dish and smooth top with a spatula. Cool slightly, uncovered, on counter, then cover and refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours. Cut into squares and serve cold. Makes 12 servings.
