Ingredients
1 cup coconut cream (kakang gata)
3 cups coconut milk
2 cups glutinous rice
1 1/2 cups water
1 cup dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt

Instructions
1. In a pan over medium heat, add the coconut cream and bring to a boil. Continue to cook, stirring
occasionally, until liquid starts to thicken.
2. Lower heat and simmer. As oil starts to separate and solids begin to form, regularly stir and scrape sides
and bottom of the pan to prevent from burning. Continue to cook and stir until curds turn golden brown.
3. Using a fine mesh sieve or colander, drain latik. Reserve oil.
4. Wash glutinous rice until water runs almost clear and drain well.
5. Grease bottom and sides of a 5 x 8-inch baking dish with coconut oil. Set aside.
6. In a thick bottom pot, combine rice and water. Over medium heat, bring to a boil. Lower heat, cover, and
cook until liquid is absorbed. Allow to cool to touch and fluff with a fork to separate grains.
7. In a wide skillet over medium heat, combine coconut milk, brown sugar, and salt. Stir until blended and
bring to a boil. Continue to cook for about 2 to 3 minutes or until slightly thickened.
8. Add rice, gently stirring to evenly distribute. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture is very thick, sticky,
and pulls away from the sides of the pan.
9. Spoon biko into the prepared baking dish and pat down with a spatula to even out. Allow to cool and set.
10. Lightly brush top with coconut oil, cut into portions, and top with latik.
