Grease a small square or rectangular tray (or plate) with a little ghee and set it aside. You can also line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
Heat a non-stick pan or heavy-bottomed skillet over low-medium heat and add the tablespoon of ghee.
Once the ghee melts, pour in the sweetened condensed milk and stir it with a silicone spatula or wooden spoon.
Gradually add the coconut milk powder, a little at a time, stirring continuously to ensure there are no lumps. The mixture will begin to thicken as the coconut milk powder absorbs the moisture.
Cook the mixture while stirring continuously to prevent sticking or burning. After about 7–10 minutes, the mixture will start to leave the sides of the pan and form a soft mass.
Once the mixture looks like dough and no longer sticks to the pan, turn off the heat.
Carefully transfer the mixture to the greased or lined tray. Flatten and smooth it into an even layer using a spatula or the back of a greased spoon.
Allow it to cool at room temperature for about 30–40 minutes, or until it sets completely.
Once set, cut into squares, diamonds, or your preferred shape using a sharp knife.
Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature or refrigerate for up to a week.
