Servings: 8
Total time: 7 hours
INGREDIENTS
- 1 9-inch pie crust
- 1 ½ cups whole milk, divided
- 5 Tbsp cornstarch
- 1 (14-oz) can unsweetened coconut milk
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- Whipped cream for topping
DIRECTIONS
- Pierce the crust all over and blind bake until golden brown. Set aside to cool completely.
- In a small bowl, combine ½ cup whole milk and the cornstarch until dissolved. Set aside.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, whisk together 1 cup whole milk, the coconut milk, and the sugar. Simmer, stirring frequently, until the sugar is dissolved.
- Whisking constantly, slowly add the cornstarch mixture to the saucepan. Continue stirring until the mixture becomes very thick (thicker than a usual pudding).
- Pour half into a bowl and set aside. Add the chocolate chips into the saucepan and stir until the chocolate chips have melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Pour the chocolate mixture into the cooled pie crust and smooth with a rubber spatula.
- Clean the spatula, then top the chocolate layer with the set-aside custard and smooth it as well.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours.
- Top with whipped cream and enjoy!
