Ingredients
  

For the Crust:
  • 200 g Marie biscuits - These sweet biscuits form the base of your tart and provide a delightful crunch.
  • 100 g melted butter - The butter binds the crushed biscuits together and lends a rich flavor.
For the Filling:
  • 1 can 395g sweetened condensed milk - This gives the filling its creamy texture and enhances the sweetness.
  • 100 g grated coconut - Fresh or dried this ingredient adds a tropical flair and chewy texture.
  • 1 tbsp butter - A small amount of butter is used to enhance the richness of the filling.
For the Topping:
  • 1 cup chopped tropical fruits such as pineapple, mango, and kiwi - A vibrant mix of fruits adds color and freshness.
  • 1/4 cup sugar - Used to sweeten the fruit and create a delicious juicy topping.

Method
 

Prepare the Crust:
  1. In a large bowl, crush 200g of Marie biscuits until you have fine crumbs.
  2. Pour in 100g of melted butter and mix well until combined.
  3. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan to form an even crust.
Make the Filling:
  1. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine 1 can (395g) of sweetened condensed milk, 100g of grated coconut, and 1 tbsp of butter.
  2. Stir continuously as the mixture heats, until it thickens to a custardy consistency, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Once thickened, pour the filling over the prepared crust and spread it evenly with a spatula.
  4. Allow the tart to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour until set.
Prepare the Fruit Topping:
  1. While the tart is cooling, prepare the topping by chopping 1 cup of seasonal tropical fruits of your choice.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine the chopped fruits with 1/4 cup of sugar.
  3. Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes or until the fruits release their juices. Stir occasionally and let cool.
Assemble Your Tart:
  1. Once the tart filling is set and your fruit is cooled, carefully spoon the fruit mixture over the top of the coconut filling.
  2. Serve immediately, or return the tart to the refrigerator until ready to serve.
