I use recipe above but I find it too watery, you can add a table spoon of cornstarch to the milk to help that
water and powdered sugar
2/3 c. evaporated milk
1 egg(beaten)
2/3 c sugar
1/4 butter
1 1/3 c. flaked coconut
1/2 c. chopped pecans
- cook first 4 ingredients in a sauce pan for about 6 or 7 minutes over medium. turn off heat and stir in coconut and pecans. cool completely before frosting cake. Good Luck!
