How To Make Chocolate Coconut Rolls

Start by preparing the pudding. Place a saucepan over low to medium heat and add milk, sugar, flour, and cocoa. Be sure to stir during cooking until it thickens. Add butter and vanilla sugar after the pudding is ready and stir until the butter has melted.

Line a baking sheet with baking paper. Cover the bottom of the pan with the fine coconut, then pour out the pudding and spread it evenly with a spatula. This mixture now needs to be set, so place it in the fridge for at least 20 minutes.

Now prepare the whipped cream. Cover the pudding with the whipped cream, and refrigerate again for at least 1 hour. When ready, cut the cake into long strips, roll, and sprinkle with pistachios.

Tips For No-Bake Chocolate Coconut Rolls 

If you want more texture, you can add a cookie base. Simply mix together 5.3 oz biscuits (Marie biscuits, Oreos, or vanilla wafers) and 1/4 cup of melted butter, and press into the pan before adding the pudding.

Alternatively, you can make a cookie base only. Mix together 15 crushed Marie biscuits, 1/3 cup superfine sugar, 2 tsp melted butter, 2 tbsp milk, and 2 tbsp cocoa powder.

Alternative toppings: cover with crushed nuts, chocolate ganache, a drizzle of caramel, or raspberry fruit puree.

For added flavor, toast the coconut before using it. To do this, place the coconut in a frying pan over medium heat. Cook until it starts to turn golden and fragrant. Store the coconut in an airtight bag or container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
