- Place under the broiler (about 3 inches from the heat) to slightly brown the coconut.
Tips:
- Add seedless jam to your frosting for color and flavor. This would be really good on angel food cakes, white cakes or spread on a slice of banana or other quick bread. Think to of chocolate cake or brownies frosted with raspberry jam frosting.
- To use up leftover mashed potatoes, shape them around 3/4 inch cubes of Velveeta cheese then roll in crushed potato chips. Bake at 350 degrees until slightly brown.
- When making gravies or sauces in creamed dishes, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to add a little zip to the taste. It isn’t strong enough to know what it is but just adds a little something.
