  • Preheat the oven to 225F and line a baking sheet with parchment.
  • Beat the meringue powder and water together in a small, deep bowl for 1 minute, then spoon in the sugar and salt and beat until stiff peaks form.
  • Beat in the extracts.
  • Scrape into a piping bag (or zip-top bag with the corner snipped) and pipe spiral discs on the parchment.
  • Place in the oven and bake for 35 minutes.
  • Turn off the oven and allow to cool 2 hours inside.

  • Curd

  • Combine the sugar, zests and starch in a saucepan and whisk in the eggs. Place over medium heat.
  • Cook, whisking constantly, for 1 minute, then whisk in the juice.
  • Slowly whisk in the hot Coconut Dream and hot water.
  • Cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, about 3 minutes, until the mixture bubbles and thickens.
  • Let bubble, whisking often, for one minute longer.
  • Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter until smooth, then add the Greek yogurt and coconut extract and whisk in until well combined.
  • Spoon into individual serving cups or ramekins, lightly press a piece of plastic wrap onto the surface of each to prevent a skin forming, and refrigerate 3-4 hours.

  • Serving

  • Remove the cups from the fridge and place a meringue cap onto the surface of each curd.
  • Serve within 30 minutes of assembly, but this is best eaten immediately.

    If you do not have tapioca starch, substitute 5 tbsp cornstarch.
    I used meringue powder because it was such a small amount needed and I didn't want a bunch of leftover egg yolks.
    The caps can be made a week ahead of time and kept away from heat and moisture up to 1 week.
