FLORIDA CHOCOLATE-DIPPED COCONUT PATTIES

Steps:

• Make the coconut filling: In a medium heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, whisk together the confectioners' sugar, butter, egg white, and salt until very liquid and warm to the touch, about 10 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and, with a spoon, stir in the coconut and vanilla until well combined. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours, up to overnight.
• When ready to coat the coconut, in a small heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water melt the chocolate. When almost melted, turn off the heat and let the chocolate continue to melt completely, stirring occasionally. Keep the bowl over the warm water.
• Form the balls: Line a small tray with parchment paper. Using a scant ounce of the coconut mixture, roll into a small ball and place on the parchment-lined tray. Repeat with the remaining mixture, forming 18 balls.
• Arrange 18 paper or foil minicups on the tray. Place additional coconut in a shallow pan or bowl. Gently place 1 of the balls into the warm melted chocolate and, using 2 forks, roll the ball in the chocolate until well coated. Lift (do not pierce) the coated coconut ball with one of the forks, allowing some of the chocolate to drip back into the bowl. Roll in the additional grated coconut, if desired, and carefully place in 1 of the prepared cups. Repeat with the remaining coconut balls and melted chocolate. Refrigerate until the chocolate has hardened and use as desired.

COCONUT PATTIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Use an ice pick or screwdriver to poke holes in the "eyes" of the coconut, and drain milk. Reserve milk for another use. Place coconut in the oven for 15 minutes. Wrap in a cloth towel, and hit with a hammer to crack open. Remove coconut from hard outer shell; discard shell. Use a vegetable peeler to remove thin brown coating from coconut. Grate coconut on the large holes of a box grater to yield 4 cups.
• Combine grated coconut, brown sugar, nutmeg, and water in a medium saucepan; cook over medium-low heat, stirring until sugar has melted and coconut is thoroughly coated, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl, and add butter, stirring until it is melted. Cool to room temperature.
• Lightly dust a clean work surface with flour, and divide dough into 2 pieces. Roll each piece to 1/8 inch thick. Use a 3 1/2-inch-round cutter to cut out disks. Reroll scraps; cut additional disks.
• Make an egg wash by combining egg and cream in a small bowl. Place 1 generous tablespoon coconut filling on each disk. Apply a light coating of egg wash to edges using a pastry brush. Fold into half-moon shapes, and press edges together with the tines of a fork to seal.
• Place patties on a baking sheet lined with a Silpat (a French nonstick baking mat) or parchment paper. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
