Time 15m

Yield 1 pan, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups raw sugar
2 cups fresh grated coconut (or dried grated coconut moistened with a few tbs milk)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon or 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground cardamom
1 pinch sea salt
1/2 cup flour (optional)

Steps:

  • NOTE: 2 cups roasted peanuts, shells and skins removed, briefly heated in a lightly oiled skillet -- or -- a mixture of both coconut and peanuts may be used in place of the grated coconut.
  • In a hot skillet, heat the sugar until it melts and just begins to brown.
