Slowly add the cornstarch mixture to the warm coconut milk while whisking continuously.

Cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until it thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

Allow the pudding to cool slightly before pouring into serving dishes.

Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours.

Serve chilled, garnished with additional shredded coconut if desired.
