powdered sugar

🥗Healthier: coconut sugar

💰Cheaper: granulated sugar

Coconut sugar offers a lower glycemic index.

Start by weighing 300 g of sugar and 120 ml of water in a saucepan.

Heat the sugar and water to create a syrup, stirring until the sugar dissolves.

In a separate saucepan, combine 30 g of cornstarch with 150 ml of water and heat until it thickens.

Once the cornstarch mixture thickens, combine it with the sugar syrup.

Add the juice of 1 lemon to the mixture and stir well.

Prepare a mold by greasing it with oil.

Pour the mixture into the greased mold and let it cool at room temperature without covering it.

After cooling, dust the surface with a mixture of powdered sugar and cornstarch to prevent sticking.

Let it set for several hours or overnight before cutting into cubes.

For a variation, use passion fruit instead of nuts, adding it to the mixture before pouring it into the mold.
