Instructions
- Melt the chocolate in a double boiler.
- Whisk coconut cream with the grated orange zest, vanilla extract, salt and egg yolks.
- Add some tablespoons of the coconut mixture to the melted chocolate and combine.
- Combine with the rest, spoon out into dessert dishes or ramekins and keep in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving.
- Garnish with raspberries, orange zest and fresh mint.
That's not necessary, just whisk to combine the ingredients.
Use the cream that settles to the top for a thicker, denser pudding.
