Yummy and easy coconut cream pie! The whipped cream topping also has a hint of coconut and the sprinkling of toasted coconut on top gives it a pretty presentation and nice texture.
1. Heat oven to 450F. Place piecrust in a pan and bake for about 10 minutes. Cool completely.
2. Reserve 1/4 cup of the cream of coconut. In a saucepan combine remaining cream of coconut, milk and pudding mix. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until mixture comes to a full boil and is very thick - about 18 minutes.
3. Pour into crust and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
4. Whip heavy cream and reserved cream of coconut until stiff peaks form. Spread over top of pie and then sprinkle with toasted coconut. Refrigerate at least 3 hours or overnight.
Toasted coconut - sprinkle coconut flakes in a frying pan and stir over medium heat. But be careful! There is a very fine line between toasted and burnt!
You can find cream of coconut in the drink mixers section. Don't try to use coconut milk, it won't work in this recipe.
