Impossible Coconut Pie

A pie that’s impossibly easy to make and makes its own crust. It’s creamy, custard-y and incredibly delicious! Top each slice with whipped cream and toasted coconuts – you are in heaven! 

I have a problem… and it’s terrible.

I still haven’t found a solution… but I am trying.

I have an issue with whipping a cream… or to be specific – whipping a cream with add-ons (e.g. whipping cream + cream cheese).

Stabilizing a whipped cream is not a problem anymore. The current problem I am facing is when cream cheese is added to whipping/whipped cream.

I made Red Velvet Cupcakes during the week and I was expecting to achieve a pipeable cream cheese frosting, but instead, I got a very, very runny frosting. I whipped the cream and it came out really good. When I added the cream cheese and beat again, ugh! The frosting disappointed me. Maybe I should have mixed both with a spatula and not with the electric mixer.

Oh well… I made another frosting using butter and it was okay. But I really want to make it with whipping cream.

Ha! Who says I am giving up? Good thing this recipe doesn’t need very well piped whipped cream – store-bought would be just fine. Well, this doesn’t include whipped cream, really! It’s just an optional recipe, but makes every slice even better.

This coconut is unbelievably divine and easy to make. It makes its own crust which is really good because I’m all about the custard-y coconut “filling” and the almost burnt (in a delicious way, of course) “crust”.

This pie is good on its own, but the additional whipped cream topping and toasted just makes this even more delicious!
