Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Desiccated coconut
- 250 grams Icing sugar
- 150 milliliters Coconut cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Pink food coloring (vegan-friendly)
Instructions
Line a small square or rectangular baking tin (approximately 8x8 inches) with parchment paper, ensuring there is an overhang for easy removal later.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the desiccated coconut and icing sugar. Mix thoroughly to remove any lumps from the icing sugar.
Pour in the coconut cream and vanilla extract. Stir the mixture until it comes together into a thick, sticky dough.
Divide the mixture evenly into two bowls. Leave one half plain and white.
In the second bowl, add the pink food coloring and mix well until the color is evenly distributed.
Press the white coconut mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared tin, smoothing the surface with the back of a spoon or spatula.
Next, carefully layer the pink coconut mixture on top of the white layer. Again, smooth the surface evenly.
Refrigerate the tin for at least 2-3 hours, or until the coconut ice is firm and set.
Remove the coconut ice from the tin using the parchment paper overhang. Place it on a cutting board and cut it into 16 squares or rectangles.
Store the vegan coconut ice in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Serve chilled and enjoy!
