"Biko is one of my favorite Filipino desserts! It’s a sweet rice cake made with coconut milk and brown sugar. Biko is traditionally placed over banana leaves and garnished with “latik” which is coconut curds. Today, I’m using shredded coconut pieces instead of Latik but trust me, it’s still very delicious! Biko is typically enjoyed during special occasions or the holidays!"
