Foamy Coconut Fudge Recipe

Foamy Coconut Fudge Recipe

Ingredients:

3 c of coconut; freshly grated
2 c of sugar (granulated)
1 c of chilled water
2 Tbsps of ghee (or light vegetable oil)
1/4 tsp of cardamom; ground
A dash of cream of tartar (if desired)

Instructions:

Fry coconut (grated) in a big saucepan in about a minute under moderate heat. Stir coconut constantly ’til it becomes flaky and dry for about 5-7 minutes. Put coconut in a small bowl after frying.

Mix water and sugar (and cream of tartar) in a saucepan and while blending, boil.

When the sugar syrup boils, continue boiling for another 7-10 minutes ’til such time that it thickens and becomes bubbly and frothy. Then, add in fried coconut, plus cardamom.

Cook mixture for another 2-5 mins. Whisk mixture thoroughly and briskly. Blend in ghee (alternatively, vegetable oil), and then, cook again ’til it starts to be foamy and will stick unto pan’s bottom (that is for another minute).

Never stop whisking the mix to avoid the sugars from crystallizing.

Quickly place mixture in a pan (greased paper will do) and even it out in a pan. Never press the candy in excess so that it won’t be dense. An ideal fudge is foamy and light.

Cool mixture for about five minutes; And then slice into desired sizes (1.5-inch squares). Keep fudge in an airtight container to preserve shelf life.
