Zucre Coco -- Moroccan Coconut Fudge Cakes
- 2 cups moist grated unsweetened coconut
- 3/4 cup evaporated milk
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 ounce butter
- 2 tablespoons lemon rind, grated
- Line an 8x8 pan or similar sized round pan with foil (as I do here as we do not have waxed paper) or waxed paper.
- In a heavy bottomed 2qt. saucepan combine coconut, evaporated milk and sugar.
- Simmer gently to soft ball stage; 238 degrees. Here we test in cold water and do not use a thermometer. The cooking time is my best guess as I have never made this using a western stove.
- Stir in the butter and lemon rind and allow to cool to room temperature.
- Beat until thick and glossy as you would for fudge but beating to glossy not until it loses it's gloss.
- Pour into prepared pan and chill 2 hours. Cut into 1/2" to 1" squares.
