Difficulty and servings
Makes 6 portions
Preparation and cooking times
- preheat the oven to 200.c before starting
- unroll your packet of ready rolled pastry and mark out 12 squares with a knife, on a baking tray with greaseproof paper place 6 and these will be the base
- on the 6 bottoms, spread a small layer of jam, dont use too much because it will run away, if you are using the frangipane add a small amount in a blob in the middle (if you would like to be more adventurous you can add sliced strawberry, blueberrys, whatever takes your fancy)
- place the remaining pieces of pastry ontop of the pastry on the tray and squash down a little, then place in the oven for 20 minutes or depending on the oven type until it has a nice golden colour, then take out and set aside to cool
- whilst the pastry is cooling is the time to make the icing, sift into a bowl and add 4 tablespoons at a time to the sugar and mix, the mixture should then start to thicken up and make a paste, keep stirring this to keep it manageable, when the pastry has cooled down then spoon onto the tops the icing sugar until all have a layer. Now is the time to sprinkle the coconut ontop and here you have very easy cakes that you can do with children
