Project 226....coconut tart

I took shortcut on the crust!  I've used a roll of frozen puff pastry...rolled it open and baked it for 20 minutes.  Allow to cool.

Filling:
2 2/3 cups of milk
1 egg
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup maizena
1/4 t salt
1 t vanilla
1 1/3 cup coconut

Heat the milk on the stove top.  Mix the rest of the ingredients except the coconut.  Mix in with
warm milk and stir until it thickens.  Stir in the coconut.  Spread on top of the crust.  Allow to cool.

Topping:
1 cup coconut cream
2 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla

Whip together and spread on top of your other layers.

Roast 1 cup of coconut in the oven for 4-5 minutes. spread it on top.
