coconut ice
just like my mother used to make.
No baking
200 g dessicated coconut
250 g sweetened condensed milk
250 g icing sugar, sifted
1/4 tsp cream of tartar
vanilla essence
Mix all together, press half into a tin lined with greaseproof paper, add a few drops of pink colouring to the other half, press on top of the white layer, leave to set, cut into squares.
I accidentally bought the colouring in powder form, it took ages to work in (I didn't even know it existed as powder - it came in a little bottle like the liquid).
