The true Jamaican coconut tart served in a unique piecrust. Very delicious.

This is a sweet dessert consisting mainly of coconut and flour. Grated coconut flakes are boiled with brown sugar into a thick stew seasoned with spices like nutmeg and cinnamon. The mixture is then poured onto a 2-3 inch pie base and some cooks use a fork to make decorative patterns on the pie base before baking for 15 minutes.
