DOUBLE-COCONUT CREAM PIE

Steps:

• Pie: On a lightly floured piece of parchment, roll out dough into a 13-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick. Fit into a 9-inch pie dish. Using kitchen shears, trim to a 1-inch overhang; fold under. Crimp edges or decorate as desired. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees with a rack in lower third. Line dough with parchment; fill with dried beans or rice. Bake until edges begin to turn golden and bottom of crust is dry, 30 to 35 minutes.Remove beans or rice and parchment; bake until bottom and sides are golden brown, 10-15 minutes more. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool completely. (Crust can be made up to a day in advance and covered tightly in foil.)
• Combine granulated sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a medium saucepan. Whisk in coconut milk; cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until bubbling and thick, about 7 minutes (about 2 minutes after it comes to a boil).
• Whisk egg yolks in a large heatproof bowl until combined. Add coconut-milk mixture in a slow, steady stream, whisking until completely incorporated. Return mixture to pan; cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it returns to a boil, 1 to 2 minutes. Boil 1 minute more, whisking constantly.
• Remove from heat; add butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking until each piece melts before adding next. Whisk in coconut. Transfer pan to wire rack; let cool, whisking occasionally, 10 minutes. Pour custard into crust. Press plastic wrap directly on surface and refrigerate until custard is chilled and firm, at least 6 hours and up to 2 days.
• Topping: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spread coconut in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet and toast until golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk cream to soft peaks. Add confectioners' sugar and vanilla; whisk until stiff peaks form. Spread whipped cream over custard. Serve immediately, or refrigerate, uncovered, up to 1 hour. Top with toasted coconut just before serving.

DOUBLE COCONUT CREAM PIE - LOVELESS CAFE

Steps:

• To make the pie crust: Combine the water and vinegar and refrigerate to make sure it's extra chilled. Keeping everything cold and working quickly are the keys to flaky pie crust.
• Place the flour and salt in a mixing bowl and give it a good stir. Add the butter cubes, and using your fingers, a fork, or a pastry blender, break the butter up into the flour. You should end up with a coarse, gravel-like mixture. Add the water and vinegar mixture about a tablespoon at a time, stirring with a fork and your hands until the dough comes together.
• Cut the dough into two equal pieces, and shape them into round, flat disks. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This dough actually became hard as a rock in the refrigerator when I left it in overnight, and needed to thaw on the counter for a while, so you might not want to leave it in the refrigerator much longer than 30 minutes.
• You only need half of the dough for this pie crust, but I always make a full batch. That way I can keep half in the freezer and be able to make another pie, or a quiche, without as much work.
• To partially bake the pie crust, roll out one disk on a lightly floured surface to a circle about 1/8 of an inch thick. Wrap the crust around your rolling pin to transfer to a 9-inch pie plate. Carefully stretch the dough into the plate, pressing gently into the corners. Trim and crimp the edges, and place it in the refrigerator.
• Preheat the oven to 325°F Line the pie shell with parchment paper, and fill the pie sheet with pie weights or dried beans, then bake for about 20 minutes, or until the dough is dried, but not brown. Scoop out the pie weights and let the shell cool.
• To make the filling: Preheat the oven to 350°F Spread the coconut out on a baking sheet and toast for about 5 minutes, stirring once or twice. It'll burn easily, so keep an eye on it. Once it's golden brown, transfer the coconut to a plate to cool. Scatter all but 2 tablespoons of the coconut on the bottom of the partially baked pie shell.
• In a mixing bowl, whisk together the whole eggs, egg yolks, and vanilla. Gradually add the sugar and coconut milk, mixing until completely blended. Whisk in the heavy cream and the half and half, but don't beat too vigorously, as you don't want the custard to have bubbles. Gently pour the mixture into the pie shell over the toasted coconut.
• Bake the pie in the middle of the oven for 55 to 60 minutes. The filling will puff up around the edges, and the center should be firm. Remove from the oven and let cool completely, then cover and refrigerate until chilled.
• To make the whipped cream topping: Whip the cream with an electric mixer or stand mixer at medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in the sugar and vanilla and continue beating until stiff peaks form.
• Remove the chilled pie from the refrigerator, and mound the whipped cream on top, spreading it to the edges to make a slightly domed shaped. Garnish with the remaining toasted coconut, and serve chilled.

DOUBLE COCONUT PIE

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350F. Spread the grated coconut in a shallow pan or baking sheet. Place in the oven for 1020 minutes (fresh takes longer than packaged), stirring frequently, until lightly browned. Remove from the oven and let cool. Remove 1 1/2 cups of the toasted coconut for the filling.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan melt the butter with the chocolate.
• Combine the remaining 2 1/2 cups of toasted coconut with the melted butter chocolate mixture. Refrigerate for 15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes, until the mixture begins to firm up. Pat the mixture into a 9 inch glass pie plate and chill again for at least 30 minutes before filling.
• For the filling: Combine the sugar, cornstarch and salt in a medium saucepan and whisk until they are thoroughly mixed and powdery looking. Continue whisking while adding the milk, first by droplets, then in a steady stream. Whisk in the egg yolks until completely incorporated.
• Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the mixture, stirring constantly with a whisk or spoon, until it boils. Be sure to reach all over the bottom and sides of the pan with the whisk or spoon to prevent lumps from forming. When it reaches a full boil, reduce the heat to low and continue cooking and stirring for 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and beat in the butter, vanilla and 1 cup of the reserved toasted coconut.
• Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface of the pudding, covering it entirely to prevent a skin from forming on the surface. Let cool for 15 minutes. Remove the plastic, stir well and pour the mixture into the pie shell. Whip the cream (if using) just before serving and spread it over the pie. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of toasted coconut over the finished pie.
