I remembered making those lovely coconut tarts on a weekend. I must say thanks for Home Economics at the Junior Secondary Level. This tasty treat not only satisfies the craving of coconut lovers, but brings local and foreign culinary art form to the table.

Ingredients for dough prep:

3 cups all purpose flour
4 ozs unsalted butter
cold water for mixing
1/8 tsp salt

Tart filling:
1 grated coconut
1 dash of vanilla extract
1/2 tsp cinnamon spice
1/2 tsp ground ginger (fresh grated ginger can be used)
1/8 tsp grated nutmeg
1 1/2 cup brown sugar


Tips:
1. Excessive water causes too much gluten to develop
2. The dough should be wrapped in foil, or cling wrap to prevent drying out

Bake in a pre-heated oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 mins, remove and brush the tarts with glaze mixture then return to the oven until golden brown
glaze mixture:
1/4 cup water
2 tbsp brown sugar
drop of vanilla essence
