📝 Preparation Steps
1
Divide the coconut in half. Working in batches add half the coconut into a large nonstick skillet. Heat over medium-low heat until golden and toasted, stirring frequently. Once the coconut is toasted, transfer it to a large baking sheet to cool. Repeat with the remaining coconut.
2
When the coconut is cooled, reserve 1/3 cup of the coconut and place in a small bowl for rolling. Set aside.
3
In a large bowl combine the remaining coconut, sweetened condensed milk, and brown sugar and stir to combine evenly.
