I dashed off a batch of homemade haupia yesterday afternoon, and we had it for dessert last night. Please note that "homemade," does not mean I climbed a coconut tree with a machete in hand to harvest fresh coconut. First of all, there are no coconut trees in the suburbs. More importantly, I like all my fingers and toes and my machete-wielding skills are sub-par at best.
In this case, "homemade" means there is a Safeway that stocks three kinds of coconut milk. I used the 'regular' canned coconut milk. It also means I have said "Aloha" to another prefabricated insta-food packet.

Haupia and berries.
And you can too. It takes about 10 minutes to cook and about an hour to set. Or you can eat it like pudding while it's still warm.
The only ingredients you need are: 1 can of coconut milk, white sugar, cornstarch and a pinch of salt.
That's it.
