180g sugar (I used fine sugar. original recipe called for 200g, but I used only 180g. Kinda of sweet too)
2 large eggs
Pandan milk (75g of coconut milk, 25g of pandan juice*, 45-50g of pandan extracts*, green colouring)
*How to get Pandan juice and extracts
Ingredients:
20 pandan leaves
150ml of water
Method:
cut 20 pandan leaves into smaller pieces
Put into blender and add in water
Use a sieve or squeeze thru muslin cloth to get the juice

Next day, you will see some darker green at the bottom and that will be the pandan extracts. The water above will be the pandan water.
