A: Coconut Ice!
It’s irresistable, and yes, it’s straight up decadent, so handle with care. My advice, make it, enjoy it, and give a lot of it away! Not only will you be spreading love and pink and white cheer, but you will be saving yourself from a sugar crash and the need for an extra hour of workout time!
Coconut ice is super pretty. That pure, icy pink contrasted with brilliant white. It’s also one for those with a sweet tooth, and those who just LOVE coconut! It’s a winner for a party, where the pink naturally makes it perfect for girl’s party themes, but boys will munch away on these without any qualms (refer to sugar content!) And on top of all that, it’s a very pretty baked gift, if you wrap it or put it in a glass jar or cookie tin, delightful!
EVEN better, it takes very little time to prepare and NO BAKING! Just mix ingredients, lay the two colors in a tray, pop in the fridge, then cut into squares. Here’s the recipe:
