Coconut Burfi

I absolutely love coconut burfi. Sweet, toothy, and easy. The depth of flavor comes from the interplay between the coconut, pistachios and cardamom.
2 cups dessicated coconut
1 1/2 cups whole milk
10 ounces sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon cardamom
1/3 cup pistachios, roughly chopped
Soak the coconut in the milk for 1-12 hours, then add it to a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan and add the condensed milk. Cook for 30 minutes at a low bubble, stirring, then add the cardamom. Cook until the mixture is reduced by about 1/3 and pulling away from the edges of the pan. Stir in the nuts and spread mixture in a buttered pan at least 9 inches across, or on a piece of parchment. Let cool enough to cut, and then cut into diamonds.
If you don't consume the entirety within two days, please refrigerate.
