Ingredients

Before we dive into the mouthwatering steps, here’s what you’ll need:

For the Pie Crust:

  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened

  • 2-3 tablespoons cold water

For the Filling:

  • ⅓ cup coconut milk
  • 2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
  • ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1: Make the Pie Crust

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Cue the promise of delicious aromas wafting through your kitchen!
  2. Mix the flour, powdered sugar, and salt in a medium bowl. Add the softened butter and mix until crumbly.
  3. Stir in egg yolk, then add cold water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Don’t be shy; channel your inner donut donut maker here!
  4. Press the dough into a 9-inch pie pan. Prick the bottom with a fork to prevent bubbling. Bake for about 15 minutes, or until lightly golden. A little golden shimmer never hurt anyone, right?

Step 2: The Caramel and Coconut Filling

  1. While your crust is baking, combine caramel candies and coconut milk in a saucepan over low heat. Stir until melted and smooth—think comforting hugs in dessert form.
  2. Stir in the shredded coconut, and let it simmer on low heat for about 5 minutes, allowing those divine flavors to meld together. This is where your kitchen starts smelling like a tropical paradise!

Step 3: Assemble the Pie

  1. Spread the coconut caramel mixture evenly over the baked crust. Don’t just dump it—spread it lovefully like it’s your best friend.
  2. Sprinkle additional shredded coconut on top for that final, fabulous touch.
  3. Return the pie to the oven for another 10 minutes to set—use this time to daydream about how amazing this dish is going to taste.

Step 4: The Chocolate Drizzle

  1. Allow the pie to cool for a bit. Melt the chocolate chips in a small microwave-safe bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  2. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the pie. Be as fancy or as messy as your heart desires. Remember, a little chaos adds character!

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy!

  1. Slice into wedges and serve this delightful treat warm or at room temperature. Perfect for sharing… or not!

Cooking Tips That’ll Make You Shine

  • Don’t skimp on aligning the crust to the pan; it can save you from heartbreak when serving!
  • If you’re feeling adventurous, try adding a sprinkle of sea salt on top of the chocolate drizzle for a sweet and salty savory twist.

A Little Personal Note

I wish I’d discovered this recipe back when my sister Patricia and I were trying our best to create a cookie buffet for our family gatherings! While our past attempts were met with laughter (and some questionable cookies), this dish has made its way into our tradition. It rarely attracts leftovers—only compliments!

FAQs

Can I use store-bought pie crust?
Absolutely! Sometimes we need shortcuts, and there’s no shame in that. A good quality pre-made crust will save time and still taste amazing.

How can I store leftovers?
If you’re lucky enough to have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days or in the fridge for up to a week. Just be ready to fend off cookie pirates!

Can I substitute the coconut?
For those not fond of coconut, you can replace it with chopped nuts or leave it out completely for a classic caramel pie. But who would want to miss out on that luscious coconut goodness?
