Ingredients
  

  • Grated coconut- 1 cup
  • Raw sugar- 1/2 cup
  • Milk- 1tbsp
  • Pandan extract- 5 to 6 tsp

Method
 

  1. First, grind coconut in a mixer grinder to get a fine texture. Do not grind in to paste.
  2. Add coconut, sugar, milk into a pot/pan on the stove and mix them well till the sugar dissolves.
  3. Cook for 10 minutes in medium flame or till the mixture comes thick and rolls into dough.
  4. Take the mixture from the stove and spread it out evenly on a flat pan. Use a knife to cut into pieces in desired shapes, while it is hot.
  5. Let the coconut cake cool to room temperature.
  6. Store in an airtight container.

Notes

  • I used raw sugar in this recipe. White sugar can also be used.
  • Avoid brown sugar, jaggery or black sugar as they have dominant taste and colour to alter the intended result.
  • I used fresh pandan leaves to extract pandan.
