Ingredients

For coconut pudding:

  • 1 ½ teaspoons (4 g) agar agar powder
  • 1 cup (240 ml) water
  • 2 tablespoons (30 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 cup (240 g) coconut milk Note 2

For pineapple whipped cream:

  • ½ cup (120 ml) heavy whipping cream
  • 1 (8oz) can (240 ml) pineapple chunks
  • ¼ -½ teaspoon yellow food coloring

For garnish:

  • 16 maraschino cherries optional

Instructions

To make coconut pudding:

  • In a medium saucepan, combine agar agar and water. Whisk and bring it to a boil over medium heat, about 2 minutes.
  • Add sugar and coconut milk and continue cooking, whisking occasionally, for another 2 minutes.
  • Divide the mixture into 16 egg shape silicone mold. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

To make pineapple whipped cream:

  • Make the pineapple whipped cream right before serving.
  • Drain pineapple and run it in a blender until pureed.
  • Whip the heavy cream until hard peaks form.
  • Mix the whipped cream, pureed pineapple and yellow food coloring. Transfer into a piping bag.

To assemble the "deviled eggs":

  • Carefully remove the coconut pudding from the mold and arrange on a platter.
  • Scoop out a dent in the “egg halves” using a small spoon.
  • Pipe the pineapple whipped cream on pudding and top with maraschino cherries, if desired.

Notes

Note: You can also use ready-to-make Hawaiin Haupia mix. You'll need an 8oz bag. Follow the package directions and set the pudding the egg molds.
Note 1: Agar agar is a tasteless and odorless thickening agent. It’s vegetarian gelatin substitute derived from seaweed. And it yields firmer jello-like pudding, which is ideal for flawless presentation.
Note 2: Use full-fat canned coconut milk.
Note 3: You can also make pineapple curd instead of pineapple whipped cream for stirdier filling. Unlike whipped cream, it can also be made in advance.
Storing Tip: Store the pina colada deviled eggs, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
