Recipe Tip
To give this recipe a springtime touch, prepare it as directed, omitting the cinnamon. Sprinkle each serving with tinted, shredded coconut and pastel-colored, miniature jelly beans. To tint the shredded coconut, simply mix 1/2 tsp of water with a few drops of food coloring. Add the colored water to 1-1/3 cups coconut in a sealable plastic bag. Close the bag and shake the coconut back and forth, until the coconut is evenly tinted.
