Ingredients For Coconut Ice:

340g desiccated coconut
340g icing sugar
400g tin of condensed milk
Optional food colouring

Cooking Directions For Coconut Ice:

1. Place the condensed milk into a bowl and add the icing sugar. Beat well then mix in the desiccated coconut. The mixture will get firm and difficult to stir but persevere until everything is all combined.

Maw Broon from the Sunday Post has published a cookbook full of her favourite Scottish and family recipes. Read More About It!

2. Divide the mixture into two (add optional food colourings to each) and spread into an 8inch square tin giving two coloured layers and allow to set overnight (time for a wee dram!)

3. Cut into small cubes and spread on a sheet of greaseproof paper to dry slightly.

4. Enjoy and remember to share with the wee bairns!

Alternative Suggestions:

Add edible colourings for a festive/seasonal variety - black and orange at Halloween, blue and white on St.Andrew's Day, or red and pink at Valentine's.
