| 13 | This is why they make your teeth fall out. |
| 14 | * i tried an approach of melting the stick of margarine using the microwave on full for 48 seconds. |
| 15 | While it was melting, i measured and mixed up the dry ingredients. |
| 16 | I then poured half the liquid over the premixed coconut-sugar mixture; mixed some and poured in the remainder. |
| 17 | This worked well for me, but my wife insists that the listed method is easier. |
| 18 | * your clean thumb is the best way to make the indentations. |
| 19 | * be sure to keep them in the refrigerator until ready to serve. |
