Start off by preheating the oven to 175 degrees Celsius, then mix together the eggs and sugar in a large bowl.

Melt the butter in a pan or using the microwave and then transfer to another large bowl along with the coconut. Mix well and allow to stand for a few minutes to ensure the fat is well absorbed by the coconut.

Pour the sugar and egg mixture into the coconut and mix well to combine into a loose dough.

Line a baking sheet with greaseproof paper and drop heaped teaspoons of the mixture onto the paper. Form them into rough cone shapes with your fingers and once you've made them all, bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes until starting to turn golden brown.

Remove from the oven and lift the cakes away from the paper before they cool to prevent sticking (you can place them back down on the same paper).
