Coconut Chips Recipe #56532
My husband and I have spent a fair amount of time in the Caribbean, especially the little island of Bequia. While there, we were introduced to coconut chips, which were served like a munchy mix during happy hour. A bit different, but they can be addictive. A hammer is helpful to crack open the baked coconut.
