- 250 g sugar
- 200 g bread crumbs
- 50 g palm based margarine
METHOD:
- Place the toasted coconut, sugar, and bread crumbs in a large bowl and mix well. Rub the palm based margarine in by hand so that it is distributed evenly among the crumbs.
- Fill a circular biscuit mould with the dough and press down hard to form a round, compact biscuit, adding more dough as needed.
- Pre-set the oven to 180oC. Place compacted biscuits in a large baking tray and bake for about 30 minutes.
