Lemon Coconut Tassies

I completely adore these candy little bites! I took the idea of a traditional Pecan Tassie and turned it the wrong way up. Should you don’t already know a Pecan Tassie is a nostalgic cookie that has a shortbread crust with a candy pecan filling. I see them most frequently across the holidays on cookie platters and for Thanksgivng, however after all they are often loved anytime of the 12 months. Baked in a mini muffin tin Pecan Tassies are like tiny bites of pecan pie…so I made a decision to take that very same concept and make it a extra Spring/Summer time dessert, the Lemon Coconut Tassie!
