Today’s soccer: Napoli - Milan :-), and it’s raining .. reason enough for some small maroccan coconut cakes I guess :-)! Summer, soccer, coconut …

The recipe
Les petits gâteaux (~12 pieces)
- 1 cup dried coconut
- 1/3 cup confectioners sugar
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 small egg
- a bit of orange zest
+ 50 gr dried coconut to decorate
Preheat the oven at 150°C.
1. Mix coconut, confectioners sugar, baking soda and orange zest in a big bowl.
2. Add the egg and mix with a fork, until smooth.
3. Shape small balls, roll each of them in coconut and place on a baking sheet.
4. Bake for around 10 minutes.
Let them cool completely to be sure “les petits gateaux” keep their form :-)!
