Notes
Coconut Barfi can be stored for 1-2 weeks if refrigerated
Since its made using dry coconut powder it has a longer shelf life
I am adding turmeric water to give a natural color, You can use food color if required.
Adding Saffron is also optional instead you may increase the cardamom powder quantity for added flavour.
While adding milk powder stir continuously to avoid lumps
Do the cooking procedure in low flame only to avoid any burning
Let the dough rest and cool down before cutting them into shapes for best results
