How to Make Coconut Chocolate Tarts

  1. Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 large egg whites, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 1 1/2 cups shredded sweetened coconut until well combined.
  3. Using wet hands or a spoon, firmly press the coconut mixture into eight 3/4 cup capacity deep muffin tins, creating a shell that covers the base and sides.
  4. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the shells are lightly golden.
  5. Let the shells cool in the tins for 1 minute before gently removing and placing them on a wire rack to cool completely.
  6. While the shells bake, prepare the filling: In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup heavy cream over medium heat until almost boiling.
  7. Remove from heat and add 6 ounces of finely chopped semi-sweet chocolate. Stir until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
  8. Pour the chocolate filling into the cooled coconut tart shells.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 10 minutes, or until the chocolate filling is set.
  10. Serve chilled with your favorite coffee or fresh berries. Enjoy!
