How to measure shredded coconut accurately
Chopped and whole nuts weigh very differently per cup. Measure the form the recipe asks for: "1 cup walnuts, chopped" means chop first, then measure.
For the most reliable result, weigh shredded coconut on a digital kitchen scale: 85 g for every cup the recipe asks for.
