1¾ cup | Cake flour |
¼ cup | Sugar |
2 teaspoons | Baking powder |
½ teaspoon | Salt |
1 cup | Chopped pecans |
½ cup | Vegetable shortening |
¼ cup | Evaporated milk |
¼ cup | Dark rum; divided |
3 cups | Exotic canned fruits; lychee nuts, |

½ cup | Dried pineapple; dried raisins and |

2 cups | White grape juice |
1 can | Sweetened condensed milk |
1 cup | Coconut cream |
In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and pecans. Using a pastry blender, flat beater attachment on an electric mixer or your fingertips, work in the shortening until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Mix in the evaporated milk and 3 tablespoons of the rum to form a soft dough. Knead it for 10 seconds, then lightly flour it and pat it out ¾-inch thick. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour until firm.
Set a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees.
Cut out 2¼-inch round biscuits and arrange them at 2-inch intervals on a nonstick or parchment lined cookie sheet. If necessary, pat the scraps together, re-chill for 10 minutes and cut more biscuits to make a total of 8.
Bake for 20 minutes or until slightly tanned and springy. Set the cookie sheet on a rack to cool.
In the meantime, in a saucepan, cover the dried fruit with white grape juice and bring to a simmer.
Cook for 3 minutes. Let cool in juice then drain. Add canned fruits.
Mix together the sweetened condensed milk, coconut cream and remaining tablespoon of rum.
With a serrated knife, split the biscuits in half. Fill with fruit and spoon on sauce.
