Satisfy your cravings with Creamy Buko-Pandan

Are you looking for something creamy and cheesy yet affordable dessert?

Well, I will introduce to you my all time favorite special Buko-Pandan. This is very easy to make, you just have to prepare all the ingredients and mix it.

Yesterday, my husband and I went to supermarket to buy some food supplies for next week, when we went home, I noticed that my neighbor was selling fresh green coconut. Suddenly, I felt thirsty and I told my husband that I would like to drink some fresh coconut water, so without hesitation he bought two pieces.

After drinking the juice, I decided to make a Buko Pandan, so I bought 1 small sachet of Pandan flavored Jelly (Gulaman) powder, cream, and cheese.

First, I cooked the jelly powder and let it set for 30 minutes, while grating coconut meat from it's shell.

Then I prepared the cheese and cut it into cubes.

While waiting for the gulaman or jelly, I prepared the food on the table and get ready for lunch.

By the way, here are the complete ingredients:

1. Coconut meat
2. Jelly powder - pandan flavor
3. Cream
4. Cheese
5. Sweetener or condense milk (depends on your preference)

When everything is ready I just, sliced the jelly into cubes. I added one pack of cream and the cheese. I mixed it all and I added some stevia to sweetened it.

Then I put it inside the refrigerator to let it cool before serving.

Here's the summary of the procedures:

1. Boil the Jelly powder first with water and wait until it becomes ready. Pour it to flat containers for faster formation.
2. Prepare the coconut meat or you can also buy some grated coconut meat already.
3. Slice the cheese and the jelly according to you preferred shapes.
4. Mix all the dry and wet ingredients together until it combines
5. Taste it and adjust the sweetness if needed, and let it cool inside the fridge.

Finally after an hour, the Creamy Buko-Pandan was ready to serve. The sweetness and saltiness of the cheese was just right.

Thanks for reading, friends. I hope you like it. If you have the same recipe with me, how do you call that dessert in your place? Please share it in the comment section, I would like to know.
