Coconut Ball

In a medium-sized saucepan, mix all the ingredients well

Bring to a simmer, without stirring, until it thickens and forms a ball, then reduce heat

Check by dropping a small amount of the mixture into cold water

If it forms a soft ball that holds its shape, it's done

Remove from heat and spread immediately onto a smooth surface, preferably marble, greased with butter

Let cool slightly and work the dough with your hands, stretching and gently twisting until it becomes white, dull, and firm

Divide into three parts and stretch quickly to achieve a thickness of 2 cm

Cut into 1.5 cm pieces with scissors

Spread in baking dishes and let dry for 3 hours

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