COCONUT ROUGHS

From Country Fair food and crafts. This is another of my Christmas gift basket recipes. There are so many things you can do with this. I use the chocolate and coconut as a base for finishing off whatever bits are left in the kitchen. In the picture are coconut roughs with just coconut, some with added walnuts, some with added candied orange. The chocolate covers everything, so you can't really see the difference, but you can taste it! I haven't done it yet, but assume green and red cherries would be delicious too. Have fun with them, they're so simple.

Tips:

  • Use fresh or unsweetened coconut: Fresh coconut yields the best flavor, but unsweetened shredded coconut is a good substitute. Avoid sweetened coconut, as it can make the roughs too sweet.
  • Toast the coconut: Toasting the coconut before adding it to the mixture enhances its flavor and gives the roughs a golden brown color.
  • Use a good-quality chocolate: The chocolate is the star of the show in coconut roughs, so it's important to use a good-quality chocolate that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Chill the mixture before shaping: Chilling the coconut mixture before shaping it makes it easier to handle and less likely to stick to your hands.
  • Be patient when melting the chocolate: Melting chocolate slowly and gently is key to preventing it from seizing. Use a double boiler or a microwave-safe bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water.
  • Decorate the coconut roughs as desired: Once the chocolate has set, you can decorate the coconut roughs with a variety of toppings, such as sprinkles, chopped nuts, or grated chocolate.

Conclusion:

Coconut roughs are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their chewy texture, sweet coconut flavor, and rich chocolate coating, they're sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give coconut roughs a try. You won't be disappointed!
