Notas
Hydrate the gelatin well before adding the hot water to avoid lumps. The water needs to be hot so the gelatin dissolves completely. Beat long enough, because this is what makes the maria-mole light and airy. Use unsweetened shredded coconut if you want to balance the sweetness better. Grease the pan with a small amount of coconut oil or another neutral oil to make unmolding easier.
