Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 oz (1 can) sweetened condensed milk
- 3 large egg yolks
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut
- 1 cup chopped pecans
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk and egg yolks. Whisk together until smooth and well combined.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and add the unsalted butter. Cook the mixture, stirring constantly, for 8-10 minutes until it thickens and can coat the back of a spoon.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract, shredded sweetened coconut, and chopped pecans. Mix until fully incorporated.
Allow the filling to cool to room temperature. It will thicken further as it cools.
Spoon the cooled filling into a pre-baked pie crust or use it as a topping for cakes, cookies, or brownies. Enjoy!
