Directions
- This recipe makes about 12 tarts.

- Mix all ingredients very well in a bowl.
- Pour the mixture into greased cupcake molds.
- Bake until golden brown (20 to 30 minutes).
Recipe Tips
- Ensure you fully melt the butter before adding it to the mixture. This will help it incorporate smoothly with the other ingredients and prevent any lumps from forming in the batter.
- For a richer coconut flavor, consider toasting the shredded coconut in a dry skillet until golden brown before adding it to the mixture. This step enhances the depth of flavor in the tarts.
- Avoid overmixing the batter after adding the eggs. Gently fold the ingredients together until just combined to maintain a light and airy texture in the tarts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different type of milk instead of regular milk in this recipe?
Yes, you can use almond milk, coconut milk, or any other non-dairy milk as a substitute for regular milk. Just keep in mind that some substitutes may slightly alter the flavor or texture of the tarts.
What should I do if my tarts are still liquid after baking for 30 minutes?
If your tarts are still liquid after the specified baking time, try extending the baking time by 5-10 minutes, checking for doneness periodically. They should be golden brown and set in the center when fully baked.
How should I store leftover coconut tarts?
Once cooled, store leftover coconut tarts in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can also freeze them for up to 2 months. Just make sure to wrap them well before freezing!
