Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 cups shredded unsweetened coconut
2 large egg whites
1/4 cup sugar
1 cup heavy cream
1 vanilla bean, split in half lengthwise
1/2 ounce crystallized ginger, finely chopped
Vegetable-oil cooking spray

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, combine the coconut, egg whites, and sugar. Mix until the mixture holds together when you squeeze it in the palm of your hand.
  • Coat 12 two-inch brioche or tartlet tins with cooking spray. Form 1 heaping tablespoon coconut mixture into a ball. Press ball into a tin, making a thumb print in the center and pressing out so mixture forms a 1/4-inch-thick "crust." Repeat with remaining coconut mixture and tins. Place tins on an unlined baking sheet.
  • Bake crusts until golden brown, about 25 minutes.
  • Remove baking sheet from oven, and let crusts cool slightly. Turn out crusts onto a wire rack, and let cool completely.
  • Pour cream into a chilled mixing bowl. Scrape vanilla seeds into cream; reserve pod for another use. Whisk until soft peaks form. Fill each crust with whipped cream; garnish with crystallized ginger. Serve.

I love coconut macaroons, so I was excited to try these tartlets. They did not disappoint! The filling was rich and creamy, and the crust was perfectly flaky.

These were a bit too time-consuming to make for a weeknight dessert, but they were definitely worth the effort. I'll be making them again for a special occasion.

I had some trouble getting the crust to brown evenly, but the tartlets still tasted great. I'll definitely try them again.

I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but these tartlets were surprisingly good. The filling was smooth and creamy, and the crust was perfectly flaky.

These were so easy to make and turned out beautifully. I used a gluten-free flour blend and they were still delicious.
