Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh shredded coconut. Unsweetened coconut is the best choice, as it allows you to control the sweetness of the clusters.
  • If you don't have sweetened condensed milk, you can make your own by simmering 1 cup of granulated sugar, 1/4 cup of light corn syrup, and 1/4 cup of water in a saucepan until the sugar dissolves and the mixture thickens. This should take about 15 minutes.
  • Be careful not to overcook the clusters. They should be cooked until they are just set, but not hard. If you overcook them, they will be dry and crumbly.
  • Store the clusters in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

Fudgy coconut clusters are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover coconut. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of these delicious clusters that will be enjoyed by everyone. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give these fudgy coconut clusters a try. You won't be disappointed!
