Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

2 cups raw sugar
2 cups fresh grated coconut (or dried grated coconut moistened with a few tbs milk)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon or 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground cardamom
1 pinch sea salt
1/2 cup flour (optional)

Steps:

NOTE: 2 cups roasted peanuts, shells and skins removed, briefly heated in a lightly oiled skillet -- or -- a mixture of both coconut and peanuts may be used in place of the grated coconut.
In a hot skillet, heat the sugar until it melts and just begins to brown.
Reduce heat and quickly add all other ingredients, stirring well as each ingredient is added. When all ingredients have been added to the mixture, continue stirring for about a minute, making sure everything is well mixed.
Scoop the mixture into a pan that has been lightly greased or lined with waxed paper. Let rest for a few minutes. Cut into squares or diamonds while still warm.
Let cool and serve.

Cook over medium high heat, stirring until all the sugar has dissolved. Stop stirring when the sugar has dissolved .You may swirl pan to prevent mixture from burning. (Stirring helps form crystallization which you do not want during this process)
Continue to cook, until mixture thickens and sugar just starts to caramelize- about 10 minutes or more depending on stove You may use a spoon to check for thickness.
