Editing Make Coconut Pyramids

{{Wikibooks recipe|Coconut Pyramids}}
Coconut pyramids are cakes simple enough for children to make, and gluten free.

== Ingredients ==
* 1 cup (100 g) desiccated coconut
* ¼ cup (50 g) castor sugar
* 1 egg
* About 6 glacé cherries (optional)
* a few drops pink food colouring (optional)

== Steps ==
# Preheat oven to 180 °C (356 °F).
# Mix the caster sugar and desiccated coconut in a bowl.
# Beat the egg in another bowl.
# Add the egg (and food colouring if using) to the dry ingredients, and stir until evenly mixed.
# Form into 6 or 7 pyramids using your hands or an egg cup, and place on a lined baking sheet (or use cupcake cases).
# Lightly press a glacé cherry (if using) into the top of each pyramid.
# Bake for 15–20 minutes until pale golden-brown.

== Tips ==
* After baking, the pyramids can be decorated with a little melted dark chocolate.
* Coconut pyramids will keep for a few days in an airtight container.
