Ingredients
Coconut Pudding
- 2⅔ cups whole milk
- 1 egg
- ⅔ cup sugar
- ¼ cup cornstarch
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1⅓ cup sweetened flake coconut
Whipped Topping
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup coconut
Instructions
Pudding
- In a medium saucepan, whisk milk and egg until completely incorporated. Add sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Cook over medium heat, whisking frequently until thickened.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in vanilla then the coconut. Pour into a baked and cooled crust (we used Marie Calendar's store-bought crust that you bake, but you can also make your own).
- Place in refrigerator until chilled, a few hours.
Whipped Topping
- Whip cream, sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Spread on top of chilled pie.
- Spread your coconut on a cookie sheet or pan. Toast at 350°F for about 2-4 minutes, until lightly golden. Sprinkle on top of your pie and eat up!
Notes
- Blind bake the pie crust. Add the pie crust to a pie dish, line it with parchment paper, and fill it with pie weights. Chill while the oven preheats to 350°F and then bake for 13-15 minutes, remove weights and paper and bake another 13-15 minutes. See this Easy Pie Crust Recipe for more tips.
- Store. Allow to cool at room temperature for about an hour, cover loosely with aluminum foil or plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 3-4 days.
- Freeze. Allow to cool and wrap tightly with plastic wrap and again with foil. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving.
