Tips for Making Frosted Chocolate Coconut Goodies
- Use a food processor to finely chop the coconut. This will help it to evenly distribute throughout the batter and prevent it from clumping.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the coconut by hand with a sharp knife. Just be sure to chop it very finely.
- To make sure the batter is the right consistency, it should be thick enough to hold its shape when dropped from a spoon, but not so thick that it's difficult to stir.
- If the batter is too thick, add a little bit of milk. If the batter is too thin, add a little bit more flour.
- Bake the coconut patties for the full amount of time specified in the recipe. This will help to ensure that they are cooked through and have a chewy texture.
- Let the coconut patties cool completely before frosting them. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
- For the best flavor, use a high-quality chocolate frosting. You can either make your own or use a store-bought frosting.
- If you want to add some extra flavor to the frosting, you can add a teaspoon of vanilla extract or a pinch of salt.
- Garnish the coconut patties with shredded coconut or chocolate shavings before serving.
