Coconut Meringues Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking pan.
• Beat butter and 1/2 cup white sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg yolks.
• Combine flour, baking powder and salt in bowl. Add flour mixture to butter mixture in two parts, alternating with milk and vanilla, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Spread in the prepared pan.
• To Make Topping: Beat egg whites until soft peaks form; add 1/2 cup of the white sugar gradually, and beat until egg whites are stiff. Fold in the coconut. Put spoonfuls here and there over batter, smoothing as best you can.
• Bake in preheated oven until meringue topping starts to brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes.

Steps:

• On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; transfer to a 9-in. pie plate. Trim to 1/2 in. beyond rim of plate; flute edge. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 425°. , Line unpricked crust with a double thickness of foil. Fill with pie weights, dried beans or uncooked rice. Bake on a lower oven rack until edge is light golden brown, 15-20 minutes. Remove foil and weights; bake until bottom is golden brown, 3-6 minutes longer. Cool on a wire rack. Reduce oven setting to 350°., In a small heavy saucepan, mix sugar, cornstarch and salt. Whisk in milk. Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly. Reduce heat to low; cook and stir 2 minutes longer. Remove from heat., In a small bowl, whisk a small amount of hot mixture into egg yolks; return all to pan, whisking constantly. Bring to a gentle boil; cook and stir 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Gently stir in chopped coconut, butter and vanilla until butter is melted., For meringue, in a small bowl, beat egg whites and cream of tartar on medium speed until foamy. Gradually add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating on high after each addition until sugar is dissolved. Continue beating until soft glossy peaks form., Transfer hot filling to crust. Spread meringue evenly over filling, sealing to edge of crust. Sprinkle with flaked coconut. Bake until meringue is golden, 12-15 minutes. Cool 1 hour on a wire rack. Refrigerate at least 3 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Stir half-and-half, coconut milk, eggs, 3/4 cup sugar, cornstarch, and salt together in a saucepan; stirring constantly, slowly bring to a boil over low heat and cook until thick, about 30 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat; fold 3/4 cup coconut into the mixture with the vanilla extract. Pour the coconut mixture into the baked pie crust.
• Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until foamy. Gradually add cream of tartar and 6 tablespoons white sugar, continuing to beat until soft peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form soft mounds rather than a sharp peak. Spread egg white mixture over the pie. Sprinkle 1/2 cup coconut over the pie.
• Bake in preheated oven until the top is golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Move to a wire rack to cool until completely cooled to the touch, about 1 hour. Refrigerate at least 3 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Beat together egg whites, cream of tartar, coconut, almond, and vanilla extracts, and salt.
• Gradually beat in sugar 2 tablespoons at a time.
• Beat until stiff peaks form.
• Sift 1/4 cup of cocoa over mixture and fold together.
• Place in a heavy duty resealable bag and cut a small hole in the corner.
• Pipe 2-inch circles on a baking sheet, and bake for 50-60 minutes at 250°F.
• Let sit in the oven for 1 1/2 hours.
• Then sprinkle with remaining cocoa.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, powdered sugar, coconut flakes, and flour.
• In another mixing bowl, whip the egg whites to soft peaks and add the sugar. Whip to medium peaks. Gently fold in the dry ingredients.
• Spoon the mixture into a pastry bag set with plain tip. Pipe into rings on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 225 ̊ F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Trace an 8-inch and a 4-inch circle on 1 sheet of parchment. Trace a 6-inch, 2-inch and 1-inch circle on the second sheet. Flip over both sheets (the circles should still be visible).
• Bring a few inches of water to a simmer in a medium saucepan over low heat. Put the egg whites in the bowl of a stand mixer and set the bowl over the saucepan (don't let the bowl touch the water). Whisk in the granulated sugar and cook, whisking constantly, until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture registers 165 ̊ F on an instant-read thermometer, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Transfer the bowl to the stand mixer and fit with the whisk attachment; add the cream of tartar. Beat on high speed until glossy with very stiff peaks, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1/2 teaspoon coconut extract. Reduce the speed to medium and beat until the mixer bowl is no longer hot to the touch, 2 to 3 more minutes.
• Transfer about half of the meringue to a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip. Starting with the largest traced circle, pipe a ruffled edge around the perimeter. Use some of the remaining meringue from the bowl to fill the circle so the middle is just slightly higher than the piped border. Pipe a second smaller circle of ruffles on top to create a tiered effect. Repeat with the 6-, 4- and 2-inch circles, creating 2 tiers of ruffles on each. Pipe the 1-inch circle, finishing with a peak on top. Transfer the baking sheets to the oven and bake until the meringues are crisp but not browned, about 2 hours. Turn off the oven and let the meringues cool in the oven.
• When ready to assemble, beat the heavy cream in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until foamy. Add the cream of coconut and confectioners' sugar, then beat on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add the remaining 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1/2 teaspoon coconut extract and whisk just to combine.
• Dust all 5 meringue tiers lightly with confectioners' sugar. Set the 8-inch layer on a serving platter or cake stand and spread a thick layer of whipped cream on top, just to where the ruffles start. Repeat with the remaining meringue layers and whipped cream, working from the largest to the smallest meringues to build the tree. Dust with more confectioners' sugar.

Steps:

• Beat egg whites until soft peaks start forming.
• Gradually add sugar until peaks are stiff.
• Fold in coconut.
• Drop onto greased cookie sheet.
• Bake at 325 celsius until edges are firm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Using an electric mixer, whip egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in sugar, continuing until stiff peaks form. Remove bowl from mixer.
• Melt the chocolate in a microwave oven or a double boiler. With a rubber spatula, gently fold the melted chocolate and half the coconut into the bowl of egg whites. Fold in the remaining coconut.
• Drop heaping tablespoons of the batter onto baking sheets lined with lightly greased parchment paper. Bake about 12 minutes, or until meringues are firm. Turn oven off, but leave cookies in oven with door ajar 15 minutes longer.
