• Add more coconut or condensed milk accordingly until you achieve the desired consistency.
• Shape into balls or pyramids and grill or broil for a few minutes watching carefully as these can burn from 1 minute to the next. Do not take your eyes off them!
• When they are lightly patched with golden brown they are ready.
