Tips:
- Use fresh coconut milk for the best flavor. Canned coconut milk can be used, but it will not taste as good.
- To make the coconut filling, be sure to cook it until it is thick and bubbly. This will help to prevent it from curdling when you add the eggs.
- If you don't have a double boiler, you can make the coconut filling in a saucepan over low heat. Just be sure to stir constantly to prevent it from burning.
- When you are adding the eggs to the coconut filling, be sure to whisk them constantly. This will help to prevent them from scrambling.
- The coconut kisses are best when they are eaten fresh. However, they can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Coconut kisses are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with just a few simple ingredients, and they can be enjoyed by people of all ages. If you are looking for a sweet and satisfying snack, then coconut kisses are the perfect choice.
