YUM! I made this for my Dad's B-day and everyone keeps asking me to make it again! This recipe is very similar to traditional family recipes I have tried before, but the coconut took it to another level. Since other reviews indicated that the coconut taste was mild I decided to use one cup of shredded coconut in in addition to substituting the evaporated milk for coconut milk. I also added a teaspoon of almond extract and did not use the 1/2 cup of sugar in the mix. It turned out great and was very surprised at how easy it wast to make! Will def make again. One tip, I melted the sugar in a nonstick pot and it took way too long to brown (35 min), I will use a metal pot next time as recommended in other recipes.
