Yield Makes 4 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 5

Vegetable-oil cooking spray
1 pound grated fresh coconut or unsweetened shredded coconut
2 3/4 cups sugar
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
1 can (12 ounces) evaporated milk

Steps:

  • Coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Stir together remaining ingredients in a large saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring almost constantly, until mixture thickens and forms a cohesive mass, about 30 minutes.
  • Pour mixture onto prepared sheet. With an offset spatula, spread 1/2 inch thick; shape into a 12-by-13-inch rectangle. Let cool completely, then cut into 1 1/2-by-2-inch rectangles.
