Fruity Maja Blanca Recipe

Drain fruit cocktail and reserve 1/2 cup fruit syrup. In a saucepan, dilute cornstarch into the coconut juice and fruit syrup. Mix thoroughly until cornstarch is fully dissolved. Bring the mixture into simmer over low heat, stirring continuously until it thickens for about 8 to 10 minutes. 

Add coconut meat shavings and 3/4 cup of fruit cocktail. Stir for another 5 minutes. Add in coconut milk and sweetened condensed milk and cook for another 15 minutes until mixture becomes sticky and shiny.

Transfer the mixture into an 8-8-inch dish or any similar container and flatten evenly. While it's still hot, sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup fruit cocktail and press slightly into the maja blanca mixture. Refrigerate for at least an hour before cutting.
