This was the first thing I tried in the book. Shows you I have a sweet tooth. I just love coconut rough!
If you are looking for the traditional coconut rough taste, this recipe will disappoint as it is not sweet (only 20 g sugar). It had a "dry" not creamy texture. Perhaps more sugar or use sweet cocoa/chocolate? A dab of butter?
I was amazed how the dry ingredients converted to a "melted" mixture! Yes, the bowl did get warm.
I think I like the traditional - the sweet tooth thing ;D
I will try again and perhaps try the other variations on the recipe.
Easy and quick recipe.

I made 1/2 quantity of this recipe to use up some shredded coconut. I have to agree with Olga, this was very disappointing and not something I would do again. I had a few pieces to see if the taste grew on me but then decided it wasn't improving. Sorry Tenina, traditional recipe for me too.

I can't think of anything to do with it Denise but now you've asked the question I have an idea. Could try it dissolved in hot milk perhaps and see how it tastes.
OK, been off and done it. Heated 4 pieces in milk in the TMX then whipped. Quite acceptable, tastes quite nice actually and now I won't have to throw it out. Thanks for making me think outside the square. Xx
