FOOD: Coconut Crisps

Hey guys! Its Teann here. Today I am bringing you Coconut Crisps. These little crisps are delicate, crunchy and delicious. The whip cream center is the perfect match making this dessert nice and light. I suggest making these for your next dinner party.

 

Coconut Crisps 

3 tbsp butter

1/3 cup coconut sugar (or brown sugar)

1/4 cup honey

1 tbsp vanilla extract

2 tbsp flour

2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut

1 cup whipping cream

1 vanilla bean, split and seeds extracted (or 2 tsp Vanilla Extract)

4 tbsp honey

1. Preheat oven to 350. Melt butter with the sugar and honey in a small sauce pan over medium heat. Stir until sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat; carefully stir in vanilla.

2. Combine flour and coconut in a large bowl. Stir in butter mixture. Drop 1 tbsp batter onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Leave enough space between the drops as they will spread during baking.

3. Bake until golden, 10 minutes. Let cool 2 minutes. Quickly lift the crisps and drape over a round object. I used a metal baster. Let set.

4. Whip whipping cream until soft peaks form. Add vanilla bean seeds and honey. Whip until peaks are firm. Using a piping bag and tip, pipe the whipped cream into the completely cools crisp.
