jamaican coconut drops
This is an all time favorite of Jamaican's. Just about every Jamaican restaurant or store sell these. I decided to add them as Horderve's at a party and I was shocked to find only crumbs left. If you like coconut, you will love Coconut Drops.

How To Make jamaican coconut drops
-
Step 1Place 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup of water to pot (a medium rice pot is what I use), bring to a boil. Combine all ingredients and add to boiling water. Boil for approximately 25 to 30 minutes or until very sticky (almost like syrup).

Step 2Line your cookie sheet with parchment paper or just use cooking spray. Take a serving spoon or ice cream scooper to yield one drop on a baking cookie sheet. Place 1 inch apart. Wait until it's cool and hard to eat. Enjoy!
