INSTRUCTIONS
* (Very few! Otherwise you'll have flourescent!)
1. Boil sugar and water to form a light syrup. 2. When bubbles the size of
small pearls appear, add grated cocunut and cream of tartar. 3. When the
cocunut mixture comes away from the sides of the pan easily, remove from
heat and beat with a spoon for 3-5 minutes. 4. Add essence and food
colouring and mix well. 5. Drop by spoonfuls on an oiled cookie or enamel
tray. 6. Allow to harden completely. 7. Store in an airtight container.
Tip: You can divide the mixture into batches before Step 4 and add a
different color to each batch. It looks really pretty in a glass
cookie jar after its finished.
In spite of the high sugar content, this is a really popular snack with
parents for the kids. It's quick & easy. There aren't any preservatives.
What you see is what you get. You have to like coconut, though.
