Proper coconut ice recipe

This doesn't have sugar but is a no cook recipe, i made it over the weekend and it was yummy.

405g can carnation light condensed milk

300g desiccate coconut

300g icing sugar

1/2 tsp vanilla

2-3 drops scarlet food colouring

Line a 24cm square tin with baking paper. Mix the condensed milk with the coconut, icing sugar and vanilla until throughly combined. Spoon half the mixture in the base of the tin and spread out evenly with the back of a spoon.

Add the food colouring to the remining mixture and blend well until it is an even pink colour. Spread over the top of the first layer and smooth out.

Leave overnight or at least 4 -5 hours in a cool place before cutting into squares.

Can you not just make truffles instead? ?

It's not a recipe I've tried (I've only ever made the no cook version ?) but think it's more what you are looking for?

? Never again!

Thanks everyone. You were all too slow ? I tried a no cook one for Scottish coconut ice and it is setting as I type!
