Tart
1 lb frozen puff pastry, thawed
2 tablespoons icing sugar
1 egg yolk
1 large pineapple, peeled, quartered, cored and cut into 11/2-inch-long, 1/4-inch-thick wedges
4 tablespoons sugar
fresh mint leaves, for garnish
Sauce
1/3 cup sugar
5 egg yolks
3/4 cup canned unsweetened coconut milk
3/4 cup pureed pineapple
2 tablespoons dark rum

1
Make sauce: In a bowl whisk sugar and yolks to blend. Add coconut milk and pineapple puree and continue to whisk. Pour into a heavy saucepan and heat, stirring constantly for about 6 minutes, until custard thickens and coats back of a spoon. Make sure you don't bring it to a boil. Strain custard through a sieve into a bowl and stir in Jamaican rum. Cool, cover and refrigerate, overnight, if desired.
2
Make tart: Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Roll out puff pastry dough, cut out 5 6-inch rounds and transfer to baking sheets. Using a fork, prick dough all over.
3
In a small bowl whisk icing sugar and egg yolk to blend and brush over dough rounds. Bake 15 minutes until golden brown. Cool.
4
Heat a heavy, large non-stick skillet over high heat, add pineapple and cook until golden brown, about 1 minute per side. Preheat grill or broiler.
5
Arrange pineapple wedges on each pastry round, covering them completely.
6
Sprinkle each tart with 1 tablespoon sugar. Watching carefully, grill or broil until edges of pineapple begin to brown, for about 5 minutes.
7
To serve, transfer tarts to large plates, spoon sauce around and garnish with mint sprigs.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
