Easy coconut-cakes


If you like coconut you will like these cakes. If you like bounty bars you will love these cakes. I dont know if it would be correct to call them cakes though because they dont have any flour in them, great for people who can not take wheat/gluten...
To dip them in chocolate is delicious but you can of course eat them just the way they are. The trick to get them to stay in shape, and not float out on the tray and create a mess, is that you are not to whisk the eggs, and do let the butter and coconut rest for 10min. It makes the coconut absorb the butter and swell a little.

50 grams butter
200 grams dessicated coconut
100 grams sugar
2 eggs

Melt the butter and mix with the coconut. Let this rest for 10min. Add eggs and sugar, be careful not to stir to much. With two spoons shape little "mountains" on a baking tray. Bake on 175C for 10min until golden. Let cool down before dipping in chocolate.
