I ended up halving the recipe, and just cooked the tapioca in the coconut milk and saved some time. I also subbed Splenda for the sugar, as I'm diabetic. Used Kraft Minute Tapioca and didn't do any of the rinsing. Still turned out great. I tried some after I was done cooking, it tastes excellent even with the modifications I used. Reminds me of a local Thai restaurant's tapioca pudding that I had. Thank you for sharing! Pictures coming as soon as it cools. :]

I'm an island girl living in Seattle, WA who loves to cook! I enjoy cooking for my family and friends, and I don't find many things more satisfying than sharing food and good memories with them. Plus they always seem to be hungry--perfect!
