Ingredients

  • 2 Puff Pastry sheets
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon water
  • 2 teaspoon coconut extract

Coconut Glaze

  • 1 2/3 cup powedered sugar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons coconut extract
  • milk as needed
  • 1/3 cup shredded sweetened coconut

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Mix together egg, water, and coconut extract, then set aside. Line baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
    On floured surface unfold pastry and roll out into a rectangle. Cut each sheet into 3 strips.
    Fold each strip in half from top to bottom. Then make a knot or roll - whichever works and looks best. 
  • Place on baking sheet and brush with egg wash.
    Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown - not sure on exact time.
    Whisk together powdered sugar and coconut extract, may need a little milk to get the right consistency but I want it thick so you can see the glaze, add more powder sugar if needed.
    Dip the top of knots into glaze or brush on cooled knots. Top immediately with toasted coconut.
