Preparation Steps
1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
On a lightly floured surface, gently roll out the puff pastry and cut it into equal-sized triangles.
3
In a bowl, combine the almond paste, shredded coconut, and coconut milk until you have a smooth, coconut-almond filling.
4
Spoon a small amount of the coconut-almond filling onto the wider end of each pastry triangle, then roll them up into croissant shapes.
5
Place the croissants on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring the seam is facing down to prevent them from opening during baking.
6
Whisk together the egg yolk and milk, then brush the mixture over the tops of the croissants to give them a beautiful golden-brown color.
7
Bake the croissants for 15-18 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
8
Melt the white chocolate with the butter. Once the croissants have cooled, drizzle the melted chocolate over them.
9
Sprinkle the tops with shredded coconut and powdered sugar. Serve and enjoy!
