Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, salt, granulated sugar and shredded coconut. Beat in the butter with a mixer on low speed; raise speed to high; beat until the mixture is in coarse crumbles.

In another bowl, whisk the coconut milk, eggs and coconut extract; stir into the flour mixture until just combined. Stir in the pecans; do not over-rmix.

Scoop 2 to 3 inch mounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, using a large ice cream scoop. Sprinkle the tops with granulated sugar.

Bake until golden brown, 15 - 17 minutes.

Glaze:
Meanwhile, make the glaze by whisking the coconut milk, coconut and vanilla extracts and 1/2 c. powdered sugar in a bowl until smooth, adding a little more sugar as necessary, to thicken.

Serve scones with the glaze drizzled over the tops while they are still warm.

Makes 20 scones.
