Directions
- 1
Make the dough: combine powdered milk, cocoa powder, and margarine. Gradually stir in the condensed milk until you get a smooth, firm dough.
- 2
Roll the dough into a ball, seal it in a food bag, and refrigerate while you prepare the filling.
- 3
Make the filling: mix shredded coconut, margarine, and remaining condensed milk until evenly combined. No cooking needed.
- 4
Place the dough on a sheet of plastic wrap and roll it out to about 0.5 cm thickness.
- 5
Spread the coconut filling evenly across the entire surface of the dough.
- 6
Using the plastic wrap as a guide, roll the dough tightly into a log. Work slowly to avoid cracking.

Keep the roll wrapped in plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- 8
Unwrap and slice into rounds roughly 1 cm thick. Serve chilled.
💡 Chef's Tip
If the dough cracks while rolling, warm it briefly in your hands. For cleaner cuts, freeze the roll for 10 minutes and use a sharp knife.
