Ingredients

  • 3 cups (300 g) cake flour
  • cup (133 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ¼ cup (½ stick / 57 g) unsalted butter, room temperature
  • ¾ cup (184 g) whole milk, plus 1 teaspoon, room temperature
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Glaze

  • 4 cups (500 g) confectioners' sugar
  • 2 teaspoons corn syrup
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ cup (122.5 g) whole milk, room temperature

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg. Add butter and mix until it becomes a sand-like consistency.
  • In a separate bowl, combine milk, egg, and vanilla.
  • Slowly add the wet mixture to the flour mixture, mixing on low until a soft dough forms.
  • Fold the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, sprinkling flour on top of the dough.
  • Shape the dough into a circle, rolling it out to about ⅓-inch thick. Using a pizza cutter or a sharp knife, cut the dough into wedges, sprinkling more flour as needed (if the dough is too sticky).
  • Carefully place the wedges onto the lined baking sheets, leaving 1-2 inches between each wedge.
  • Bake 10-12 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through baking time, until golden brown.

Glaze

  • In a medium bowl, combine sugar, syrup, vanilla, salt, and milk. Whisk together until smooth, adding more milk (if necessary) to reach your desired consistency.
  • After the sconuts have cooled slightly, pour the glaze over them until completely covered. Serve immediately.
