directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Whisk the flour, baking powder, salt, granulated sugar and shredded coconut in a bowl.
- Beat in the butter with a mixer on low speed, then raise the speed to high and beat until the mixture is in coarse crumbles.
- Whisk the coconut milk, eggs and coconut extract in another bowl, then stir into the flour mixture until just combined.
- Stir in the pecans; do not overmix.
- Scoop 2-3 inch mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheets ~ a large ice cream scoop works well for this.
- Sprinkle the tops with sugar and bake until golden brown for 15-17 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the glaze: Whisk the coconut milk, coconut and vanilla extracts and 1/2 cup of confectioners sugar in a bowl until smooth, adding more surag as needed to thicken to a 'drizzle' consistency.
- Drizzle over the scones while still slightly warm.
