In a separate bowl, toss the coconut with the sugar and cinnamon. In a saucepan, bring brown sugar, butter and milk to a boil; pour over the balls. If you have a larger steamer, you can steam more at the same time. Mash the steamed taro slices using a fork or a potato masher followed by the steamed sweet potatoes. These baked yam balls with sausages are very yummy with a crunchy corn flakes coating.
