- For the Tart Shell: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- In a medium bowl, mix the 3 1/3 cups coconut, egg whites, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla together.
- Lightly press this macaroon mixture against the sides and bottom of a buttered 9-inch tart pan to form the walls of the tart.
- Bake the shell until the bottom crust is tanned and the sides are golden brown, about 10 minutes.
- Let cool on a rack.
- Lower oven temperature to 325 degrees F.
- For the Orange Filling: While the shell is cooling, in a medium bowl, mix the yolks, sweetened condensed milk, extract, oil, orange juice, and zest together.
