Not only were these delicious, you get extra points for ingenuity.
I used French bread, which held up well to the dipping/rolling. My husband was surprised to learn these were made from bread, as when they are finished, they taste a lot like cake. I used your Sweetened Condensed Milk Substitute for Diabetics, and it worked out well. Thanks for sharing this tasty, simple, quick recipe!

These are so yummy and easy. Taste just like coconut macaroons! I told my Mom about this recipe so she immediately made it loved it too! I will be making it alot. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe!

I was pleasantly surprised with these simple sweets. They taste almost like a homemade coconut macaroon! I had week-old sourdough bread, the flavor of which only came through the tiniest bit. And the only coconut I had was this very small-flaked stuff that was organic and sugar-free, but it worked well. The sticks sort of melted together in the oven, so don't put them too close together on your pan. I lined a pan with parchment paper, and baked these for about 10 minutes. They are nice and chewy.

I had left over French bread, and a half can of sweetened condensed milk (from halving another recipe) and happened to see Gayla J's beautiful photo. So, what's a girl to do ..... just had to make a half batch of these little treats for myself. Wow, what an easy and tasty recipe. This is a keeper, for sure.

Fantastic!! Nobody will tell that they started out as stale bread!!! Kids and adults alike loved them I couldn't believe how simple they were to make and so photogenic too

Delicious! I put the condensed a few seconds on microwave and was easier to dip the sticks on it! It's a keeper for sure! Thans a lot!

I'm not sure exactly what I did wrong, but these just didn't turn out the way I thought they would. I had trouble with the whole dipping and rolling procedure. After baking, all I could taste was the sweetened condensed milk. I was the only one in the family that would even try them. I'm sorry, but I won't be making these again.

These are perfect for me! I love sweets and I love coconut! I love these! I scaled the recipe down and made some with leftover french bread and some with regular white bread. I cannot tell you if one is better than the other and I have sampled too many times to keep trying to figure it out. It was a good excuse though. Thank you!!! I absolutely love love love them!!!

These were very, very tasty! A bit messy and sticky,though. I followed the other reviewer's advice and nuked the milk and that helped a lot, but wow...still very sticky and messy. I had to wash my fingers off after every other one just because so much coconut would build up on them-my fingers were ready for the oven! LOL! I also tried the last few strips with imitation honey instead of the milk, because I ran short. It shaved 30 calories per TBS and worked just fine! Taste was so similar...because the coconut flavor demands all of the attention. Next time I think I will use low cal bread and imitation honey all the way. They need to come up with sugar free coconut! (Oh, I guess they did! It's called unsweetened coconut!)
Thanks!
