Cómo preparar German Chocolate Pie Filling
- Scald 2 cups of milk in a medium saucepan over medium heat. (Milk should be just below boiling; small bubbles should appear around the edges.)
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 cup cornstarch. Gradually whisk in 1 cup of the scalded milk until smooth.
- In a small bowl, whisk 2 large egg yolks. Temper the egg yolks by slowly whisking in 1 cup of the hot milk mixture. This prevents the eggs from scrambling.
- Pour the tempered egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining milk mixture. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil and thickens (about 1 minute).
- Reduce heat to low and continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the filling has thickened considerably and coats the back of a spoon (about 2-3 minutes).
- Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter (unmelted), 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut, 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, and 1 cup pecan halves.
- Stir until the butter is melted and the filling is a uniform color.
- Let the filling cool slightly before pouring it into a 9-inch baked pie shell.
- **Prepare the topping:**
- In a medium bowl, whip 2 cups heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add 1/4 cup chocolate syrup while continuing to whip until stiff peaks form.
- Fold in 1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut and 1/2 cup pecan halves.
- Spoon the whipped cream topping generously over the cooled pie filling, piling it high.
- Drizzle additional chocolate syrup over the topping for decoration.
