Steps:
- For the cookies: Whisk together the flour, salt, baking powder and allspice in a large bowl.
- Beat the butter, cream cheese and sugar in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add the egg and beat to combine. Add the rum, vanilla and coconut extract, mixing until combined. Turn off the mixer and add the dry ingredients. Mix on low until almost entirely incorporated. Fold in the coconut flakes with a rubber spatula.
- Divide the dough in half and press each piece flat between 2 sheets of parchment paper. Use a rolling pin to roll the dough slightly thicker than 1/8 inch thick. Stack the flattened dough pieces on a baking sheet (don't remove the parchment paper) and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment or silicone baking mats. Dust a clean work surface lightly with flour.
- Working with one piece at a time, peel the top layer of parchment off a dough sheet and flip onto the workstation. Peel off the remaining sheet. (Alternatively, you may loosen the parchment on both sides to cut directly on the paper.) Use a 1 3/4-inch round cutter to punch out cookies and arrange them on the prepared baking sheets spaced 1 inch apart. (If the dough becomes soft while you are working, return it to the refrigerator until firm.) Reroll and cut out any scraps.
- Bake the cookies, rotating the pans halfway through, until golden brown around the edges, 10 to 11 minutes. Cool on the baking sheets for 5 to 10 minutes before transferring the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For the curd: Fill a medium saucepan with a few inches of water and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Whisk the eggs, egg yolks, sugar and salt together in a medium heatproof bowl until well mixed and lightened in color, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the puree. Set the mixture over the pot of simmering water (make sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water) and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened like pudding, about 18 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter, one piece at a time. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl. Press plastic wrap directly against the surface of the curd to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate until set, at least 1 hour.
- Transfer the chilled curd to a pastry bag or resealable plastic bag and snip about 1/2-inch off one corner. To fill, flip over half the cookies and pipe 1 to 2 teaspoons curd onto each. Top with the remaining cookies. Refrigerate at least 1 hour for the curd to set and the cookies to soften slightly.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Hand mix cake mix, eggs, and oil in a large bowl. This will be extremely messy. Do this until batter is firm and holds together well.
- In a separate bowl hand mix coconut, and milk; adding the milk slowly till mixture is moist.(You may not need all of the milk depending on the brand of coconut).
- Take teaspoon sized amounts of dough and flatten. (I found if works best if I flatten against my palm). Place a generous pinch of coconut mixture and place in the center of the flattened batter. Roll the dough so that the coconut is not exposed. (pinch the sides closed if needed).
- Place on a cookie sheet and bake for 8-12 minutes. Move onto wire rack to cool.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Beat the butter in a large bowl using an electric whisk or in a stand mixer until very soft.

- Roll the dough into 14-16 balls (about 45g each) and arrange on a baking sheet lined with baking parchment, well spaced apart. Flatten each slightly using the palm of your hand and bake for 12-15 mins until golden brown and slightly firm to the touch. Leave to cool on the sheet briefly, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Break the chocolate into pieces and tip into a heatproof bowl, then melt in 20-second bursts in the microwave. Or set the bowl over a pan of simmering water, ensuring the bowl doesn't touch the water, stirring until smooth. Dip one half of each cookie into the melted chocolate, then lay on a sheet of baking parchment and sprinkle with the remaining toasted coconut. Leave to set for about 30 mins.
