Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 piece Pre-made pie crust (or homemade crust)
- 1.5 cups Coconut milk
- 1.5 cups Whole milk
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Cornstarch
- 1 cup Water
- 6 oz Dark chocolate, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup (optional) Whipped cream (for topping)
- 0.25 cup (optional) Shredded coconut (for garnish)
Instructions
Pre-bake the pie crust according to the package instructions or your desired homemade recipe. Allow it to cool completely while you prepare the filling.
In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk, whole milk, and granulated sugar over medium heat. Stir occasionally until the sugar dissolves completely.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water until smooth to form a slurry. Gradually add this slurry to the coconut milk mixture, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
Continue cooking the mixture over medium heat, whisking continuously, until it thickens into a pudding-like consistency—this may take about 5-7 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Divide the filling mixture in half, leaving one portion in the saucepan. Add the chopped dark chocolate to the saucepan and whisk until it melts completely, creating a chocolate haupia filling.
Pour the chocolate haupia layer into the cooled pie crust and smooth the surface. Chill in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes to let it set slightly.
Pour the plain haupia mixture on top of the chocolate layer, spreading it evenly. Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
Optional: Once the pie is set, top with whipped cream and garnish with shredded coconut for added texture and flavor.
Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy your Favorite Chocolate Haupia Pie!
