Ingredients
for the crust
- 200 g Tennis biscuits or Graham crackers
- 100 g butter
for the filling
- 2 x 400ml tins coconut milk
- 250 ml low fat milk
- 2 ml coconut essence
- 3 egg yolks
- 75 g cornflour
- 150 g caster sugar
to serve
- Whipped Cream
Instructions
- To make the base, crush the cookies and place in a bowl.
- Melt the butter and pour over the cookie crumbs. Mix until the crumbs resemble moist sand.
- Press into the bottom of a 30cm tart tin/pie dish and place in the refrigerator.
- To make the filling, combine the coconut milk, milk and coconut essence in a saucepan and place over gentle heat. Allow the mixture to get hot, but don't allow to boil.
- In a separate bowl, combine the cornflour, egg yolks and caster sugar. When the coconut milk mixture is hot, slowly, and while whisking, add a ladle full to the cornflour mixture. Whisk until completely smooth then pour back into the pot with the remaining coconut milk.
- Allow to heat gently while continuously stirring until thick and smooth. Allow to cook for at 7-10 minutes until the mixture is as thick as shop-bought custard and doesn't taste floury anymore.
- Pour through a sieve and then into the chilled cookie crumb base.
- Chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
- When ready to serve, top with whipped cream and serve immediately.
