Equipment

  • Medium pot
  • plastic wrap
  • bowls
  • cake pan
  • spoon etc.

Ingredients

  • 1/4th cup Unsweetened coconut flakes
  • 12 ounces of artisanal white chocolate bars
  • 3 drops Gel-paste food coloring
  • 1/3rd cup Sweetened coconut flakes
  • 1 ounce of finely crafted milk chocolate
  • (14 ounces) Sweetened condensed milk a can of pure indulgence
  • 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • Plastic wrap for a tidy culinary process
  • Aluminum foil a trusty companion in the kitchen
  • Parchment paper for a seamless baking experience

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place parchment paper on the cake pan and spread coconut flakes over it.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden brown, stirring halfway through baking time. Remove from oven and set aside to cool completely.
  • In a medium pot over low heat, melt white chocolate bars and milk chocolate. Once melted, add butter and whisk until smooth.
  • Add sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, and salt to the pot and stir until everything is well combined.
  • Wrap the cake pan with wrap and the aluminum foil. Pour the chocolate mixture over the cooled coconut flakes in the cake pan and spread evenly.
  • Separate the remaining white chocolate into two bowls. 1 or 2 drops of gel-paste food coloring in each bowl and mix until completely blended.
  • Pour one colored white chocolate over each side of the cake pan. With a spoon, swirl the colors together in a marble pattern. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the chocolate to set. Cut into individual pieces and serve.

Notes

  • Make sure to use high-quality ingredients for the best results.
  • Be sure to melt the chocolate and other ingredients slowly over low heat.
  • When adding food coloring, add only a drop or two at a time until the desired color is achieved.
  • If you are using aluminum foil instead of plastic wrap to store the candy, make sure it is completely cooled before wrapping.
  • This candy can last for up to two weeks stored in an airtight container in a cool place.
  • Be creative with the ingredients used and add your own personal touch to this recipe.
