Method
- 1
Heat the oven to 180°C (160°C fan). Line two baking trays with baking paper.
- 2
Mix the coconut, condensed milk, egg yolks, vanilla and salt in a big bowl until it holds together like a sticky dough.
- 3
Using a damp tablespoon, scoop 16 mounds onto the trays, squeezing each into a tight heap.
- 4
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until the tops and edges are golden brown and smell toasty.
19 min - 5
Cool on the tray for 10 minutes so they firm up before lifting. Store in a tin for up to 4 days.
