Coconut Ice Recipe using only 4 ingredients in 10 minutes
Coconut Ice is a sweet made from desiccated Coconut that originated from Britain and is popular in Australia and South Africa. It has a very chewy and milky texture. In this recipe, we make it from grated Coconut. Coconut Ice is like Sri Lankan Pol Topi (Coconut Toffee) with the only difference being that Pol Topi uses a Caramelized Sugar syrup. This is a no bake no cook recipe.
In this recipe, we added Rose colored Food coloring for the second layer. If you want to use natural ingredients, you can grated a raw Beetroot and then blend it with a little bit of Water. Extract the juice of the puree using a strainer which you can use for the coloring.
