Coconut Ice

I made this recipe this afternoon. Exactly like the recipe said.. Once I cut into squares the 2 colours didn’t hold together sadly. Thank you for the recipe. I think next time I use this recipe I’ll add the food coloring drops into half of condensmilk. Just easier to mix. Taste very nice though
