In a medium sauce pan dissolve corn starch in water completely. Add sugar and whisk until well blended.
Turn on low heat and continue stirring until the mixture thickens to soft playdough consistency.
Remove from heat and transfer to a small bowl. Allow to cool completely at room temperature or in the fridge.
In the meantime, in a mixer, combine butter, powdered sugar and beat until light and fluffy.
Add in the corn starch mixture and continue mixing until completely combined. Mix in ½ cup of coconut on low speed. When fully combined transfer to fridge for at least 30 minutes for the mixture to set.
Spread 1 cup of coconut on a plate. Scoop up a heaping tablespoon full of the mixture and roll into a ball. Roll the ball in the coconut to cover and place into the candy cups.
