Haupia Pudding Parfaits

Ingredients

• 2 cans Coconut Milk
• 1/2 cup Arrowroot Powder
• 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
• 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
• 1 cup Fresh Pineapple
• 1 cup Fresh Mango
• 1/4 cup Macadamia Nuts (chopped)

Instructions

1. 1Cut the 1 cup of fresh pineapple into 1/2-inch cubes and the 1 cup of fresh mango into 1/2-inch cubes. Set aside the 1/4 cup of chopped macadamia nuts.
2. 2In a medium (2-3 quart) saucepan, whisk together the 2 cans of coconut milk, the 1/2 cup of arrowroot powder, and the 1/2 cup of granulated sugar until the mixture is smooth and no lumps remain.
3. 3Place the saucepan over medium heat (approximately 300-325°F or 150-163°C). Stir constantly with a whisk or spatula for 15-20 minutes, until the mixture visibly thickens to a smooth, creamy pudding consistency and coats the back of a spoon.
4. 4Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the 1 tsp of vanilla extract until fully combined. Allow the haupia pudding to cool at room temperature for at least 15 minutes to prevent the fruit from cooking when layered.
5. 5Divide the haupia pudding, the 1 cup of cubed fresh pineapple, the 1 cup of cubed fresh mango, and the 1/4 cup of chopped macadamia nuts evenly among 4 parfait glasses or small cups. Create layers by starting with haupia, then fruit, then nuts, repeating until all ingredients are used.
6. 6Place the assembled parfaits in the refrigerator and chill for at least 30 minutes. This allows the pudding to set completely and enhances the refreshing taste before serving.
