Mexican Coffee Buns (Roti Boy)


Mexican coffee bun or as known as the Rotiboy made famous by the bakery called Rotiboy in  Penang, Malaysia.  Now it is popular all over Asia. 
This bun is best eaten hot, the buttery centre and the sweet coffee flavoured topping is irresistibly tasty.  I made these a few times now, I can't help by adding a little extra toppings on them like hazelnuts & shredded coconut. Hmmm..... think next time I try using a different filling.
 
 
 

Mini Coconut tarts

 
After adjusting this recipe twice, I am really happy with it.
The flavours and texture of these mini coconut tarts are like the ones you get in Chinese bakeries. 
The most time consuming part is moulding the pastry into the tart tins. 
But they are really delicious so its all worth it. 
I use packets of dried desiccated coconut but you can buy fresh and grate it yourself. 
 

It's Christmas! Ho Ho Ho !
