Coconut Ball

In a medium saucepan, combine all the ingredients

Stir well

Heat over low heat without stirring until the mixture reaches a boil

Then, reduce the heat and let it simmer

Allow the mixture to thicken to the point where you can pull out a small amount of the cooked coconut mixture from the saucepan with your spatula and shape it into a ball

This should take about 5 minutes

Check by dropping a small amount of the mixture onto a plate with cold water

If it holds its shape, it's done

Remove the saucepan from the heat and spread the hot mixture immediately onto a smooth surface, such as marble or granite, that has been lightly buttered

Allow it to cool slightly and then work the "mass" with your hands by stretching and gently twisting until it becomes white, matte, and firm

Divide into three portions and stretch rapidly to achieve a thickness of 2 cm

Cut into 1.5 cm pieces with scissors

Distribute onto baking sheets and let dry for 3 hours

Wrap in special wrapping paper or store in an airtight container.
