Traditional “Kueh Bangkit” should be fragrant, crumbly and melt in the mouth. Most of those that you get from the stores tend to be hard and lack the coconut fragrance.

Since we have ready-to-use coconut cream now, this recipe only calls for cooking at low heat (till just below boiling point) – just enough to dissolve the icing sugar. There wasn’t a specified […]
