ZUCRE COCO -- MOROCCAN COCONUT FUDGE CAKES
Literally this translates into coconut sugar. I have added the word fudge here as these are most commonly called "cakes." Also, for ease I have used evaporated milk in the recipe though mass marketing of evaporated milk here is relatively new. Most home cooks evaporate their own milk, IF they can afford milk. This is a lovely very sweet ending to a rich meal served with strong black coffee and how we most often serve it here. This sort of recipe is made only by those who have money and certainly isn't the average person's fare who is more concerned with finding bread. Morocco is devistatingly poor with 95% of the wealth belonging to just under 5% of the people. Moroccans say it is a true blessing to be able to eat so extravagantly as to have these coconut cakes. This is quick to make and if you love coconut, this is for you! Cut into very small squares though; Moroccans adore things extremely sweet. Enjoy! c.\2005

Steps:
- Line an 8x8 pan or similar sized round pan with foil (as I do here as we do not have waxed paper) or waxed paper.
- In a heavy bottomed 2qt. saucepan combine coconut, evaporated milk and sugar.
- Simmer gently to soft ball stage; 238 degrees. Here we test in cold water and do not use a thermometer. The cooking time is my best guess as I have never made this using a western stove.
- Stir in the butter and lemon rind and allow to cool to room temperature.
- Beat until thick and glossy as you would for fudge but beating to glossy not until it loses it's gloss.
- Pour into prepared pan and chill 2 hours. Cut into 1/2" to 1" squares.

MOROCCAN LEMON CAKE
A light lemony dessert which can be made in any shaped tin but you will need to adjust cooking times to suit. I use 2 x 20cm sandwich tins. Serve with cream for added luxury.

LEMON COCONUT BITES
The tangy lemon flavor of this layered bar dessert is especially delicious on a warm day. It takes me back to selling lemonade on the sidewalk as a little girl. -Donna Biddle, Elmira, New York

MIDDLE EASTERN COCONUT CAKE (HARISSAH)
If you love coconut macaroons, you will love this dish. This recipe is incredibly easy.This recipe yields a very moist cake that is traditional in the Jordanian/ Palestinian region.This recipe is different than the traditional harissa (also known as basbousa) which is made has semolina or cream of wheat as the main ingredient. I love coconut macaroons which this reminds me of, but in a cake like form.This is always a hit when i have company.If you cannot find unsweetened coconut, use regular sweetened and reduce sugar and use about 1 1/2-1 3/4 cup for the batter.

Steps:
- First make syrup by boiling water and sugar for about 5 to 10 minutes depending on how heavy you may want it but it shouldn't be any thicker than pancake syrup in consistency.
- *You may also add a tsp of rose water or orange blossom to it to give more of a traditional middle eastern dessert taste (I personally can do without it so that's why my recipe doesn't call for it under the ingredients).
- When done with that process set syrup aside to cool.
- Start on the Harissa by combining sugar,eggs,oil,milk,vanilla,lemon juice and mix them together until blended.
- Then add flour and baking powder to mixture and blend well.
- Lastly you want to STIR coconut into batter.
- Then its time to add to greased and floured pan (never a bundt pan)-- an oblong pan will do.
- Bake for about 30 minutes at 350°F or more until a light/medium golden brown.
- When cake is done and still hot pour syrup all over cake in pan.
- You don't have to use all the syrup but at least 3/4 should be used on the cake.
- Let cool, then cut in slanted squares.
- Then remove each piece onto a tray.
- You can garnish with a little shredded coconut on top for presentation.
