Cocoanut Tarts

Grate the white part of a cocoanut, add to it its own weight of sugar and one-half cup milk; stew in a sauce pan until tender. When cool, add three well beaten eggs, the grated rind of one lemon and a pinch of salt. Line patty pans with rich puff paste and fill with the cocoanut mixture. Bake from twenty minutes to half an hour.
