Instructions
Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the shredded coconut and toast until golden, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside. Drain and finely chop the pineapple slices. Return the frying pan to a medium- high heat. Cook the pineapple until lightly browned, 4-6 minutes. Add the butter and brown sugar and cook until golden brown and sticky, 2-4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside to cool for at least 5 minutes.
In a large bowl, whisk the thickened cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form and almost doubled in size, 3-4 minutes. TIP: For the perfect soft peaks, whip until the cream just clings to the whisk or beater when lifted. TIP: If you don't have an electric mixer, use a metal hand whisk.
Halve the passionfruit. Pick and thinly slice the mint leaves. Add 1/2 the mint to the cream and stir to combine. When you are ready to serve, dollop a spoonful of mint cream on each meringue nest and top with the caramelised pineapple. Drizzle the pavlovas with passionfruit pulp. Top with the toasted coconut and remaining mint.
Arrange the mini pavlovas on a platter to serve.
