ZUCRE COCO -- MOROCCAN COCONUT FUDGE CAKES

Steps:

• Line an 8x8 pan or similar sized round pan with foil (as I do here as we do not have waxed paper) or waxed paper.
• In a heavy bottomed 2qt. saucepan combine coconut, evaporated milk and sugar.
• Simmer gently to soft ball stage; 238 degrees. Here we test in cold water and do not use a thermometer. The cooking time is my best guess as I have never made this using a western stove.
• Stir in the butter and lemon rind and allow to cool to room temperature.
• Beat until thick and glossy as you would for fudge but beating to glossy not until it loses it's gloss.
• Pour into prepared pan and chill 2 hours. Cut into 1/2" to 1" squares.

• 3. Pour the batter into your prepared pan(s). Bake in the middle of your preheated oven until the cake tests done - approximately 25 to 30 minutes for two round cake pans, 35 to 40 minutes for 9x13-inch pan. (You could also use a tube or bundt pan which will require about 40 minutes baking time.)
• 4. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 5 to 10 minutes. Carefully run a butter knife along the edges to loosen the cake from the sides of the pan. Then turn out the cake onto a rack to cool completely.
