Crust

Method

Crust

1

Prepare the crust

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar. Pour in the melted butter and mix until well combined. The mixture should hold together when pressed.

2

Bake the crust

Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.

Filling

3

Prepare the filling

In a saucepan, whisk together coconut milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and egg yolks over medium heat. Stir continuously until the mixture begins to thicken and bubble, about 5-7 minutes.

4

Add flavor

Once thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and shredded coconut until fully incorporated.

5

Fill the crust

Pour the coconut filling into the cooled crust, smoothing it out with a spatula. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.

Topping

6

Prepare the topping

In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar together until stiff peaks form.

7

Assemble the pie

Spread the whipped cream over the set coconut filling. Sprinkle toasted shredded coconut on top for garnish.

8

Serve

Slice the coconut cream pie and serve chilled. Enjoy your delicious dessert!
