• To toast coconut: In a small skillet over low heat melt a small amount of butter (about a teaspoon per cup of grated coconut). Once melted, add coconut and stir to coat. Allow to toast (be patient) stirring occasionally, being extremely careful not to burn the coconut. Once toasted, spread out on paper towels to cool. Store in airtight container until ready to use.
