Preparation

1 h 30
  1. Mix the flour, salt, grated coconut and sugar. Scatter over the butter cut into pieces and work it with your fingertips into a crumbly dough.
  2. Make a well and add the egg yolks. Knead and form a ball. Wrap the ball of dough in cling film and let the dough rest in the fridge for at least one hour.
  3. Preheat the oven to 180°C (gas mark 6). Take the dough out of the refrigerator. Then roll out the dough on a floured work surface with a rolling pin to a thickness of half a centimetre.
  4. Using a 5 cm round cookie cutter, though you can use a glass, cut out rounds until the dough is used up and place them as you go on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
  5. Sprinkle the dough discs with grated coconut. Bake for about 12 to 15 minutes depending on your oven. Let the cookies cool on a rack.
