World's best coconut cream pie recipe ever
By lilbit411922
world's best coconut cream pie recipe ever
- Coconut Custard Filling:
- 4 egg yolks
- 1/3 c. plus 2 tsp cornstarch
- 3 cups of whole milk (1 can of coconut milk + enough milk to equal 3 cups)
- 3/4 c sugar, plus 1 TBL
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp vanilla
- 2 TBL butter
- 1 c shredded coconut*
- 1 baked pie shell, 9 or 10″ (I use the Cook’s Illustrated Perfect Pie Crust recipe, the one with vodka.)
- Topping:
- 1/2 cup toasted coconut
- 1.5 cups whipping cream
- 1/3 c sugar
- 3/4 tsp unflavored gelatin (opt)
- I prefer unsweetened, finely ground coconut, but if all you have is sweetened flaked, cut the sugar to a 1/2 cup. I like to process the coconut in a food processor so that it’s fine instead of stringy.
