There are many snacks/pastries alluded to as coconut confection however the sweet chewy Coconut Candy talked about here is the one we make in Nigeria. Despite the fact that some work goes to grinding the crisp coconut meat into little pieces, the nibble itself is exceptionally easy to make.

Fixings 

• 1 head crisp coconut with the juice 

• 200g icing sugar (powdered sugar) 

• Water 

Before you make the Nigerian Coconut Candy 

• Break the coconut, making a point to gather the coconut juice from it. 
• Expel the meat from the shells and mesh the meat into little pieces. I utilize the littler openings on this grater for this undertaking. Make a point to grind along the meat of the coconut instead of crosswise over it. This is with the goal that you'll have long thin coconut pieces as opposed to a mass of ground coconut. 

Bearings 

• Empty the coconut juice into the pot.

• Continue mixing till the coconut pieces begin turning marginally dark colored. 
• Kill the warmth and scoop the extremely hot coconut confection onto a level plate and leave to chill off. 

Notes:
