Candy Kelapa- manisan dolu-dolu?

Jumpa balik manisan ni kat Bakeri Ria kat Melawati ni....punya la suka hati sebab this candy reminds me so much of my childhood days in Kuantan. My kids are so ga-ga over these coconut candy

I remember when I was in primary school, Assunta Convent, we always have this "Special Tuckshop" day...Special Tuckshop ni macam the school invited parents or outside people to sell foods different from the school canteen. This coconut candy would only be available during the special tuckshop.

Anyway, when one of our older cousin stayed with us, she attended home science class and taught me how to make this candy.

2 biji kelapa

1 tin susu pekat

1/2 gula

2 sudu margerin /butter (dulu-dulu orang jarang pakai butter, yg famous Planta atau Daisy margerin)

1 sudu kecil vanilla essence

Goreng kelapa sehingga kering (jangan sampai jadi kerisik pulak)
Bila dah agak kekuningan, masukkan gula & susu pekat- kacau
Masukkan mentega, kacau sehingga sebati bersama adunan
Goreng&kacau di atas api sehingga kelapa tak melekat di kuali- masukkan pewarna&gaul rata-rata
Tuang ke dalam bekas dah tekan-tekan bagi padat.
Potong sebelum adunan terlalu keras...

Now, these coconut candy is one of my children's favourites..I did with love..muahs!
