Sofia's Kitchen - Coconut petit fours


By Greedy Gourmand (Visit website)







Apologies for the lack of posts, but trying to organise an overseas holiday in a few days is tough stuff.

But no fear, I will be back next Thursday, and until then, here is the latest installment of Sofia's Kitchen.



Akin to a coconut macaroon, but with a touch more flair.



Coconut Petit Fours

makes 30+



ingredients:

500G  castor sugar

500G  shredded coconut

9 TBLS melted unsalted butter

9 TBLS  self raising flour

9  eggs (small)

1 packet vanilla sugar

glazed cherries, halved





method:



Pre heat oven to 170C



Place sugar in a bowl and add the eggs one at a time beating well.  Beat mixture until light and fluffy.

Add vanilla sugar and melted butter to mixture and beat until combined.  Now put the mixer down and get ready to use your hands!



Add the shredded coconut, and flour and mix well with your hand making sure all ingredients are well combined.  Let mixture sit a little bit for the dry ingredients to absorb the wet.  The mixture should stick to a spoon.  If too watery you can a little more flour and coconut.



Place baking paper down on flat trays and scoop tablespoons of the mixture onto the trays allowing enough room for some spreading.  Place a glazed cherry on top and place into oven until they turn a light golden brown.



Petifours should have a crisp outside with a chewy moist centre.
