  1. Nice treat for your sweet tooth. Mine didn't set up completely either, but it still tasted good. Made for October 2010 Think Pink Tag.
     
  2. Although this is quite a delicious confection, I found that it did not set properly. I followed the directions as given. Perhaps it needed to sit for longer. I was not going to waste the batch so I spread the coconut ice mixture on to milk coffee biscuits and they were great.
     
  3. Very yummy! I made these for a Christmas function and part of some Christmas gifts. I think there may be a mistake with the recipe because I didn't think 1/4 cup coconut was enough for 4 3/4 cup of icing sugar, so I used 4 1/4 cups of coconut and it seem to mix together. Once I figured this out it was so easy to prepare. Everyone at the Christmas party really enjoyed these, there was none left on the plate. Thank you for posting Perfect Pixie
     
  4. I was going to only give 3 stars because mine never set up. However, the taste is excellent (if a little sweet, but that's to be expected) and I discovered that it makes a fabulous dip for strawberries. So, I had to give credit for that possiblity. I will try this again in the future, maybe with a smaller size can of condensed milk.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I lived in new zealand for 8 years of my life, now england for the past 8 years. I go to boarding school on the east coast of england. I have friends from all over the world, my best friend is canadian and also lived in france, so her mum and her for that fact, are mean chefs, boy do i like going to her house. I recently found out I am intollerant to wheat so have found it difficult to give up such easy foods to find and now have to search harder. I also have 2 leaks in my heart, one on a valve going in and one on a valve going out. A top carteoligist from London told me as long as I don't get pregnant for a while (I should hope not, I'm only 15) or eat fatty foods, my heart would do allright. He said he didn't want to operate on me yet, beacause there is a operation coming in the next 10 years which is lazer, so he wants me to wait, but he said I was fit and healthy and had no need to worry, yet....... when i was younger i dreamed of being a choreographer or a marine biolagist, then i wanted to work for vouge magazine, then get married and move to barbados and raise a family where the only thing that passes anyones lips will be home grown or hand made, a bit ambitious i know, hehe. But now my dream is to be a laywer and help others that really need it, and hopefully move back to my roots and bring up a family there For lent i have given up refined sugars and it is so hard and i am only 3 days into it, i was starving at school, opened my tuk box only to find marshmallows and smarties and a box of cereal, i think cereal is about to become my best friend over the next 6 weeks. LOL EDITED 30TH AUGUST; Last night at 3:30am, my best friend lost her battle to cancer and it has made me realise how important it is to live life to the full and take every opportunity thrown at us. She was a special girl and only 15 - wherever she is now though, she is out of her suffering. I have no doubt that she went straight to heaven. Lord rest your soul. i also have a lot of favourite sayings, here are some of them "shoot for the moon, even if you don't make it, you'll land amoung the stars" "I'm on a seafood diet, see food and eat it" "smiling is infectious, you catch it like the flu, when someone smiled at me today, i started smiling too, i passed around the corner and someone saw me grin, when he smiled i realised, i'd passed it on to him. I thought about that smile, then i realised it's worth, a single smile just like mine could pass around the earth. So if you feel a smile begin, don't leave undetected. Lets start an epedemic quick, and get the world infected!!!"
