Coconut Ice Recipe
Ingredients
- Condensed milk 250gm
- Icing sugar, sifted, 250gm
- Desiccated coconut 200 gm
- Pink food color a few drops
Method
Using a wooden spoon, mix together the condensed milk and icing sugar in a large bowl. It will get very stiff. Work the coconut into the mix until it's well combined - use your hands, if you like. Split the mix into two and knead a very small amount of food coloring into one half.
Dust a board with icing sugar, then shape each half into a smooth rectangle and place one on top of the other. Roll with a rolling pin, reshaping with your hands every couple of rolls, until you have a rectangle of two-tone coconut ice about 3cm thick. Transfer to a plate or board and leave uncovered for at least 3 hrs or ideally overnight to set. Cut into squares with a sharp knife.
