Crust Preparation

1. Make the crust

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Set aside to cool.

Filling Preparation

2. Prepare the filling

In a saucepan, whisk together coconut milk, heavy cream, sugar, cornstarch, and egg yolks. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and starts to boil. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and shredded coconut. Pour the filling into the cooled crust and spread evenly.

Topping Preparation

3. Prepare the topping

In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream and sugar together until soft peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the coconut filling. Sprinkle the toasted shredded coconut on top for garnish.

Final Steps

Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until set. Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your delicious coconut cream pie!
