I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my candy turned out too hard. I think I might have cooked it for too long.

I had a hard time finding pandan leaves, but I was able to find them at an Asian grocery store.

I love how versatile this candy is. You can eat it on its own, or you can use it as a topping for desserts like ice cream or yogurt.

This candy is a great make-ahead snack. I made a batch last week and they're still just as good today.

I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but I really enjoyed this candy. The pandan flavor really balances out the coconut and makes it more palatable.

This pandan coconut candy is absolutely delicious! The coconut flavor is rich and creamy, and the pandan adds a subtle floral note. The candy is also very easy to make, and it's a great way to use up leftover coconut milk.
