    Hi, I just subscribed yesterday, but had been listening to your videos for a couple of years. My dad used to be subscribed and watched you regularly. Sadly he passed in August and I hadn't heard you again. Yesterday I was scrolling and I heard your voice and it brought back memories of dad and listening to his comments as you cooked. So I had to sub and imagine what he would be saying while you cooked again.

    I remember buying a striped coconut bar candy when I was a child. It was white, pink, and brown, but it all tasted the same,
    I make coconut balls rolled in melted chocolate at Christmas time. My recipe is similar, but I melt butter instead of sweetened condensed milk. I'm going to try it your way this year.

    I’m a 5th generation Canadian who traces my female line to Argyl. I can’t believe how many of your recipes my Grandma used to make! This coconut ice is another flash back. If it wasn’t my grandma making it it was definitely served in her United church basement!

    That’s really interesting a candy named “ice” isn’t frozen. But it kinda looks like snow so it makes sense.

    This recipe reminds me of a treat we have in the Philadelphia area of the US sold around St Patrick's Day. The end product is different. A bite sized serving of the mixture would be rolled into a ball then rolled in cinnamon. But I bet the texture and taste (without the cinnamon) would be quite similar.
