🥥🍰 Coconut Cream Pie 🍰🥥

Ingredients:

For the Crust:

1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/3 cup granulated sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
For the Filling:

1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk
1 1/2 cups whole milk
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
4 large egg yolks
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups shredded sweetened coconut
For the Topping:

1 cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup toasted coconut flakes (for garnish)
Directions:

Prepare the Crust:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press the mixture evenly into a 9-inch pie pan. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.

Cook the Filling:
In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk, whole milk, and sugar. Heat over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is warm, but not boiling.

Thicken the Filling:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and egg yolks. Slowly pour about 1 cup of the warm milk mixture into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to temper the eggs. Gradually return the tempered mixture to the saucepan.

Simmer and Stir:
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and begins to bubble. Remove from heat and stir in the butter, vanilla extract, and shredded coconut. Allow the filling to cool slightly.

Assemble the Pie:
Pour the filling into the cooled crust and spread it evenly. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the filling to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.

Prepare the Whipped Cream Topping:
In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.

Finish the Pie:
Spread the whipped cream over the chilled pie filling. Sprinkle toasted coconut flakes on top for a beautiful garnish.

Serve and Enjoy:
Slice and serve this creamy, tropical dessert. It’s best enjoyed chilled!

Homemade Krispy Kremes
Ingredients For Homemade Krispy Kremes
3 tbsp milk
3 tbsp boiling water
1 tsp dry active yeast
8 oz all purpose flour (a little under 2 cups - i recommend you measure and weigh. see my note above)
1 1/2 oz sugar (about 3 tablespoons)
1 egg
1 oz butter, cold to room temperature (just don't melt it, okay?)
dash of salt
enough oil to cover the bottom few inches of a wok, or a deep fryer.
Glaze:
1/3 cup butter
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
4 tablespoons hot water or as needed
How To Make Homemade Krispy Kremes
In a large measuring jug, combine the milk and boiling water. Add a teaspoon of the sugar and the yeast. Stir it gently, then leave it in a warm place for the yeast to activate (aka foam).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, the rest of the sugar, and the salt. Cut in the butter using your fingers or a pastry blender, until it resembles crumbs.
Add the egg (give it a quick beat) and yeast mixture to the flour mix, and mix into a smooth dough. This usually takes about 5 minutes of mixing.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly-floured counter and knead for about 5 to 10 minutes it should feel springy and little bubbles should form under the surface. Place it back in the bowl, cover with a cloth or plastic wrap, and let rise for about an hour until double in size.
Once risen, place the dough onto the counter and cut it into 4 pieces. One piece at a time, stretch it into a long rope about an inch to an inch and a half wide. Cut strips about an inch long, ball em up with your hands, and place them on a baking tray or wire rack to wait.
Cover the doughnuts holes with a cloth to rise while you heat the oil to 375F.
Place the doughnuts into the oil and fry until golden brown on each side, about 2 minutes. Be sure to fry only a few at a time so they don’t overcrowd and stick together.
Drain on a paper towel or wire rack over a cloth, before glazing them. Be sure to glaze them warm, or else they won’t get that delicious coverage!
