Number Of Ingredients 12

2/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup cornstarch
2 tablespoons flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 eggs
3 cups milk
1 tablespoon butter
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 1/4 cups Mounds Sweetened Coconut Flakes

2 tablespoons Mounds Sweetened Coconut Flakes toasted*

Steps:

  • In medium saucepan, stir together sugar, cornstarch, flour and salt. Add eggs; stir until mixture is smooth. Gradually stir in milk. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with whisk, until mixture boils; boil and stir 1 minute. Remove from heat; stir in butter and vanilla. Add coconut, stirring to blend. Pour into baked pie crust. Press plastic wrap directly onto surface; refrigerate 6 to 8 hours. Just before serving, spread with whipped cream. Top with toasted coconut. Cover; refrigerate leftover pie. TO TOAST COCONUT: Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spread coconut in thin layer in shallow baking pan. Bake 5 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until light golden brown.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling later on.
  • Use High-Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the final product. Use the best quality coconut cream, chocolate, and other ingredients that you can find.
  • Follow the Recipe Carefully: Baking is a science, so it's important to follow the recipe carefully. Don't substitute ingredients or change the measurements unless you know exactly what you're doing.
  • Don't Overmix: Overmixing can make the crust tough and the filling rubbery. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the Pie Before Serving: Chilling the pie before serving will help it set and make it easier to slice.
