Ingredients
  

For the Crust:

  • 12 full graham cracker sheets about 1 ½ cups crumbs
  • ½ cup toasted coconut flakes
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 8 tbsp unsalted butter melted

For the Filling:

  • 4 egg yolks
  • ¼ cup heavy cream or heavy whipping cream
  • 1 ⅔ cups whole milk
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp coconut extract
  • ¼ cup cornstarch
  • 4.4 oz white chocolate finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • Pinch of salt to enhance flavors

For Topping:

  • Whipped cream
  • Toasted coconut flakes
  • White chocolate shavings optional
  • Caramel drizzle optional

Instructions
 

Making the Crust:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a food processor, pulse graham crackers, toasted coconut flakes, and sugar until fine crumbs form.
  • Add melted butter and mix until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  • Press the mixture firmly into a 9.5-inch pie pan, covering the bottom and sides evenly.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, then let it cool completely before adding the filling.

Preparing the Filling:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together egg yolks, milk, heavy cream, sugar, and coconut extract until smooth.
  • Pour the mixture into a saucepan over medium heat.
  • Gradually whisk in cornstarch and a pinch of salt, continuing to stir until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Once the pudding is thick and large bubbles form, remove from heat.
  • Stir in white chocolate and butter until fully melted and smooth, ensuring a velvety consistency.
  • Pour the pudding into the cooled pie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  • Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the pudding’s surface to prevent skin from forming.
  • Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for the best texture and flavor.

Adding the Finishing Touches:

  • Before serving, top with a generous layer of whipped cream, spreading it evenly over the surface.
  • Sprinkle toasted coconut flakes and white chocolate shavings on top for added texture and flavor.
  • For an extra indulgent touch, drizzle with caramel sauce or a sprinkle of sea salt.
  • Slice and serve chilled for a refreshing, creamy treat.
