Coconut Tuile Cones with Passion-Fruit Ice Cream
- 1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons light corn syrup
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut
- Accompaniment: passion-fruit ice cream
- Garnish: sliced star fruit
- Special equipment: a small metal offset spatula
- Bring butter, brown sugar, and corn syrup to a boil over moderate heat, stirring.
- Add flour and cook, stirring constantly, until dough is slightly thickened, about 1 minute.
- Stir in coconut and cool to room temperature, about 45 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Crumple foil to form a solid cone (about 6 inches long and 3 inches across widest part) for shaping cookies.
- Drop 2 (1-tablespoon) portions of dough 6 inches apart on a buttered baking sheet and pat each into a 5-inch round with your fingertips.
- Bake in middle of oven until golden, 6 to 8 minutes (cookies will spread to about 6 inches).
- Let cookies stand on baking sheet until just firm enough to hold their shape, about 2 minutes.
- Gently loosen cookies from baking sheet with offset spatula, then turn over so smooth sides are facing up.
- Roll 1 cookie onto cone and cool on cone until cookie holds cone shape, about 15 seconds, then carefully slip off onto a rack to cool completely.
- Shape remaining cookie in same manner.
- (If cookies become too brittle to roll onto cone, return baking sheet to oven for a few seconds to soften.)
- Make and shape more cookies with remaining dough.
- Put 3 small scoops ice cream into each cone and put cones on plates.
