Serve chilled as a refreshing dessert on hot days or after meals.
Keep refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
For easy unmolding, briefly dip the mold in warm water before turning it out.
Variations:
Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract or a splash of rum for extra flavor depth.
Top with fresh fruit like mango or pineapple for a tropical twist.
Use flavored gelatin (e.g., coconut or pineapple) instead of plain for a sweeter note.
Garnish with toasted nuts or chocolate shavings for texture contrast.
FAQ:
Can I use flavored gelatin instead of unflavored?
Yes, but unflavored gelatin keeps the taste neutral and creamy, letting the milk and coconut flavors shine.
What if I don’t have powdered milk?
Powdered milk helps thicken and add creaminess; you can substitute with extra condensed milk or cream but adjust sweetness accordingly.
How long does it take to set?
Typically, it needs at least 4 hours in the fridge, but overnight is best for firmness.
Is this dessert suitable for freezing?
Freezing is not recommended as the texture may become grainy or separate upon thawing.
