Coconut Burfi is a very traditional sweet of South India. It is one of the most famous sweets during many festivals. It is made using very simple ingredients and the process is also very simple. I inherited this recipe from my Aunty as she used to prepare it frequently during all the celebrations and share it with friends and family. We can even call it ad coconut fudge and perfect for parties. My most favourite part of this sweet is the texture and flavour of the coconut and ghee.
