Method
- Line a tray with banana leaves or prepare small candy papers before cooking.
- Combine coconut, muscovado, coconut milk, and salt in a heavy pan.
- Cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture begins to bubble.
- Lower the heat and stir steadily, scraping the base and corners as the caramel thickens.
- Cook until the mixture pulls from the pan and a spoonful holds its shape without leaking syrup.
- Stir in butter or coconut oil and immediately portion onto the prepared leaves.
- Cool completely before wrapping or packing airtight.
