  1. Simmer over low heat, stirring constantly, for 5 minutes. Press the mixture into the buttered pan not quite to the edges and about 3/4″ thick; let cool. Cut into 1 1/2″ diamonds.

  2. *A lower-fat milk can also be used, but the resulting mixture will be more crumbly. Fresh coconut is much better than dried in this recipe, but either form is acceptable.
