Coconut Tarts

Cookbook

Ingredients

1 1/3 cups sifted Hour
1 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup Roberts Butter
2 Roberts Eggs
1 1/2 cups flaked coconut

Preparation

Combine flour, 1/3 cup sugar and salt; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in 1 egg until well-mixed. Knead dough slightly until mixture holds together; wrap in waxed paper and chill 2 hours. Meanwhile, mix together remaining ingredients until well-blended. For each tart, pinch off 1 rounded teaspoonful of chilled dough; press evenly in a 2 x 1/2 inch tartlet pan. Fill crust with 1 teaspoon coconut filling. Place pans on baking sheet and bake at 375 for 12 minutes, or until filling is golden brown. Cool in pans; remove tarts from pans.

Yield: about 4 dozen
