Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Gather your essential tools: a medium-sized saucepan, a whisk, a measuring cup, and serving cups or hollowed orange halves.
  2. In the saucepan, pour in the full-fat coconut cream, then add the freshly squeezed orange juice, granulated sugar, orange zest, cornstarch, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix until smooth.
  3. Place your saucepan over medium heat. Continuously whisk the mixture gently until it thickens, about 5–7 minutes.
