Preparation method
- Place each pastel pastry sheet disc in the bottom and sides of a tartlet mold, no need to grease
- Press the dough well to remove all air and ensure they are well-shaped
- In a bowl, mix the egg yolk, condensed milk, and shredded coconut until a homogeneous cream is obtained
- Fill the pastry shells with the cocada cream to the brim
- Place in a preheated oven at a medium to low temperature, and bake until golden
- Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, unmold, and serve hot or cold
