I’m not sure if you remembered that I talked to you about Mexican dishes, well this is one of them. Althought it can be found all around latin America, including my country Venezuela.

What are cocadas then?

Cocadas are sweet coconut treats originating from the state of Colima, Mexico. Traditionally, the concoction is made by combining grated coconut, sugar, eggs, and water, although some modern versions incorporate flavorings such as cloves, vanilla, or almond extract.

Sometimes, cooks like to add food coloring to cocadas in order to symbolize the flag colors of a specific country, making the soft and chewy dessert both patriotic and tasty.

Cocadas can be found throughout the streets and beaches of Latin America, usually sold out of baskets or in batches from big, aluminum trays.

As you can see Dear Reader; the original recipe is not very much keto friendly jajaja. But in this case, we have made them as healthy as possible, but still with this delicious coconut flavor that it characterizes Cocadas.

• then add the 5 ml of vanilla essence and continue stirring

• Finally, we add the 27 Grams of shredded coconut and stir once again.
• We cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rest for about 15 minutes (the coconut will absorb the rest of the ingredients even more).

• Once the 15 minutes have passed; Make a total of 7 balls and place them on a tray.
• We take it to bake between 10 and 15 minutes (depending on how hot your oven is in my case I needed 20 minutes; but that is just because my oven is kinda slow!)

I think one of the reasons why I’m madly in love with Singapore its because of how near we are to the sea; the tropical vibe (very similar to my hometown country Venezuela) and this delicious hot weather with gorgeous sunsets all around.

I was born to live in tropical environments and wonderful summer vibes all year around.

This cocada will make you feel just like that!

Infact, that’s the perfect way I would describe it. “The perfect summer vibe snack” – and a very much healthy one by the way!
