Steps:
- Make the pastry. In a mixing bowl, add the melted buter and powdered sugar and mix until combined. Then add the milk and 6 tablespoons of the beaten egg. Combine. In 2 batches, add the flour. The mixture will start to get thick so use 2 round bladed knifes and cut through until the mixture resembles lumps as in the photo. Then use your hand and gather the pastry together until it becomes one big lump! Wrap in plastic wrap and let it rest in the fridge whilst you make the filling below.
- Make the filling: In a saucepan on low heat, heat the butter, milk, powdered sugar and salt. Stir until the butter has melted and the mixture starts to simmer. Switch off the heat and add the coconut. Stir well and set aside until cool or around 20 - 30 minutes.
- Once the coconut filling has cooled, add the 4 beaten eggs PLUS the remainder left from the pastry. Mix well to combine then add the cream, custard / vanilla pudding powder, vanilla extract and baking powder. Combine well then cover in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes so it can firm up a little.
- Preheat the oven to 375 F / 190 C. Make the tarts. Take the pastry from the fridge and knead it slightly so it is pliable. Then roll out as thin as possible. I divided my pastry in to 2 batches so it was manageable on the work top. Take a pastry cutter suitable for the size pan you are using and cut discs to fit. For this recipe, I used 2 regular cupcake pans as you see in the photo. This yielded 24 tarts. Butter the cupcake pan very well so the pastry does not stick when baking.
- Place the tart discs in to the cupcake pan and gently push down then take a fork and prick holes in the bottom of each pastry disc.
- Take the filling from the fridge and give it a stir, then fill each cup with the mixture until nearly full.
- Place in the oven for 15 minutes then switch off the oven and leave the door closed for 10 minutes. The tarts will continue to brown a little after the oven is off. Then transfer on to a cooling rack. Serve warm or cold with a nice cup of tea!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Position an oven rack in the lower third (just below centre) of the oven.
- In a mixing bowl, stir flour, icing sugar and salt together to mix well.
- Add chilled butter cubes and rub into the flour until the mixture resembles a sandy mixture or like breadcrumbs.
- Add egg yolks, and cut into the flour-butter mixture with a dough scraper until the dough starts to come together. Finish up kneading by hand until the dough is smooth and even coloured. DO NOT OVER-KNEAD or else the pastry will be tough.
- Set it in the chiller while you make the filling.
- In a mixing bowl, combine eggs, sugar, milk, coconut milk and yellow food colouring (optional). Whisk by hand until sugar dissolves.
- Add in melted butter and whisk to combine well. Tip in grated coconut and stir to combine well. (If using desiccated coconut, please read notes below.)
- BLIND-BAKE THE TART SHELLS
- Line the tart moulds with pastry dough, pressing gently into the moulds. The thickness should ideally be between 3 - 4 mm.
- Line the tart shells with a cut square of baking paper. Fill with baking beans or rice. OR instead of using weights, lightly prick the base with a fork. Bake in the oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the tart shells are a light golden brown.
- Remove the baking beans and baking paper.
- Spoon the coconut filling into each tart shell. Do not spoon too much liquid, leaving about a 2-mm border around the tart edge clear of filling. Note: If desired, strain the coconut filling before filling. Do not press any juices out from the flesh when you do this, as it should be soaked as heavily as possible. Then, fill tart shells with the flesh. Finally, spoon just enough of the liquid custard to fill up to almost the edge of the tart. Don't overdo it, otherwise the custard will bubble over the edges of the shells during baking.
- To create a slightly dome-shaped filling, pile some strained coconut flesh in the centre (please read Notes below).
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until coconut tops brown evenly. Bake for a few minutes longer if you like the crusted tops.
- Remove from oven and let the tarts cool in their moulds for 15 minutes. Gently remove from tart moulds and cool on a baking rack.

My Grandma used to send these to the soldiers in the Second World War. I've modified their sugar content as they used to be quite sweet.

COCONUT TARTS WITH STRAWBERRY JAM
Steps:
- Add your flour, salt and icing sugar to your food processor and give it a whizz to combine evenly. Or you can mix it together in a large bowl.
- Dot over your grated butter and pulse for about 15 pulses until the mixture becomes sand like. Or rub in by hand.
- Add your egg yolk, vanilla extract and milk and pulse for about 10 pulses (lasting a second each) by which time the mixture should be starting to form some clumpy boulders of various sizes.
- Lightly flour your worksurface and tip your pastry mixture out.
- Bring the pastry gently together into a ball, knead literally just a 2-3 times to achieve this.
- Flatten the dough to a depth of about 1 inch, wrap in cling film (saran wrap) and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
- Whilst your dough is in your fridge make your coconut topping.
- Heat your oven to 180°C/160°C Fan/355°F/Gas mark 4.
- Place a large baking tray into your oven to heat.
- Using your pastry brush, grease your tart cases with butter, making sure you get into all of the crevices.
- Beat together your softened butter and caster sugar until it becomes a soft, spreadable paste and is a little lighter in colour. I tend to do this by hand using the spatula as there is so little to mix.
- Add your beaten eggs, milk and vanilla extract and beat until smooth and you can see a few air bubbles on the top.
- Sift in your flour, salt, baking powder and cornflour.
- Beat again until fully combined.
- Fold in your desiccated coconut until evenly mixed together.
- Divide your pastry dough up into 20 balls of 24 grams.
- Pop a dough ball into each tart case and press it down with your thumb. Then starting from the base begin to press the dough up the sides of the tart case. Moving around in circles so that the dough is kept at the same level and thickness. Try to press the dough very slightly above the edge of the tart case and then wipe it away, so that you have an even and smooth finish.
- Pop the tarts back into your refrigerator to set for 10 minutes, as the pastry will have become warm during the moulding process.
- Take ¾teaspoon of jam and add it to each tart.
- Take a heaped teaspoon of coconut filling and place on top of the jam base.
- Add half of a cherry to each tart, but do not press it into the topping otherwise it will sink.
- Place the tarts onto you pre-heated baking tray.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top of the coconut tarts and the pastry case edges are nicely browned.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 375.
- 2. Working on a well floured surface, roll out dough to a thickness of about 1/8 inch.
- 3. Cut out six 6 inch x 4 inch rectangles of dough a place them in the pans, using your fingers to gently press dough into bottom and up sides. Trim excess edges of dough, roll into ball, cover with plastic wrap and freeze for future use.
- 4. Place two tablespoons of coconut cream in each pan. Bake for 30 minutes. Transfer pans to wire rack and let cool for 30 minutes. Decorate top of each tart with 1 Tbsp. coconut flakes and serve. The tarts can be stored in sealed container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
- 5. Coconut Cream: 1 stick unsalted butter, softened 1/2 cup sugar 2 eggs 2/3 cup unsweetened grated coconut 1/2 t. pure vanilla extract 1 t. dark rum Put butter in heatproof bowl. Set bowl over pan of gently simmering water until butter is melted. Remove bowl from pan. Whisk sugar into bowl of melted butter. Add eggs, one at a time, whisking them constantly so they don't become cooked. Whisk until mixture is well blended. Mix in coconut, vanilla extract and rum. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before using. The coconut cream can be kept tightly covered in refrigerator for up to two days. You can use toasted coconut for a nuttier flavor, but stick to unsweetened grated coconut for recipes with other dominant flavors. Makes 2 1/2 cups.
- 6. Perfect Pie Dough: 2 sticks very cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes (8 oz) 1/4 cup powdered sugar 1 egg 1 T. cold water 1/2 t. salt 2 1/2 cups flour Put butter and powdered sugar in food processor fitted with metal blade. On pulse setting, mix for two minutes. Add egg, water, and salt and pulse for another two minutes, until mixture is smooth. Add flour gradually. Pulse for another minute, until mixture forms dough. Remove ball of dough from food processor, cover in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour before use. Well wrapped, this dough can be stored in freezer for up to two months and thawed in refrigerator. This is a great dough for any pie. It is especially important not to overwork the dough while preparing it. Make sure that all your ingredients are cold and turn off the food processor after each step.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Place a shallow 23cm flan tin on a baking tray. Tip the spices, coconut and sugar into a pan with 150ml water and cook over a low heat for about 5 mins, stirring frequently to ensure the mixture doesn't catch. Set aside to cool.
- Meanwhile, roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface and use to line the flan tin. Trim off the excess pastry, fill the pastry case with baking parchment and baking beans and cook for 15 mins. Remove the beans and cook for 5 mins more so the pastry on the base of the tin is just cooked, but not brown.
- Beat the egg and melted butter into the cooled coconut mixture, then spoon into the pastry case and smooth the top. Bake for 25 mins until the pastry is golden and the coconut pale golden. Serve with cream or real vanilla ice cream and some Cape gooseberries, then follow with cups of black Rooibos tea.

Steps:
- Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in bowl of food processor. Add the butter and shortening, and pulse until crumbs the size of peas form. Slowly add 1 cup cold water until the dough just comes together. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour.
- In the meantime, combine the coconut, sugar, mixed essence, and 1 cup of water in a saucepan, and simmer the mixture until the sugar melts and liquid thickens to the consistency of maple syrup, about 30 minutes. Cool.
- To make the tarts: Preheat the oven to 350°F degrees. Dust the chilled dough with flour and divide into 15 balls. Flatten the balls and then roll out to 1/8 inch thick, dusting with flour as necessary to prevent sticking.
- Place 1 tablespoon of filling on the center of a disk. Lightly brush the edges of the disk with water and fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon. Crimp the edges closed, using a fork. Repeat with the rest of the dough.
- Beat the egg yolk and milk together, and brush over the tarts. Prick each tart once or twice so that steam can escape. Bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the tarts are golden brown. Cool and serve.
