Notes - 

1. This tastes just like Kueh Bangkit but on a firmer texture. 

2. I used Kara coconut milk 200ml packet form.

3. I used more 260g flour as my dough was quite sticky.

4. Add bit by bit of water if your dough is too dry.

Mix the coconut liquid into the flour

Cover with cling wrap and rest for 30 minutes.
