How to Make Airy Chocolate Coconut Cream Pie

  1. **Crust:**
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  3. In a food processor, pulse 1 ½ cups (150g) pretzels, ¼ cup (50g) packed brown sugar, and ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon until finely ground.
  4. Add 6 tablespoons (85g) melted unsalted butter and pulse until combined.
  5. Spray a 9-inch pie pan with cooking spray. Press the crust mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of the pan.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
  7. **Filling:**
  8. In a large bowl, beat 2 cups (473ml) full-fat coconut milk with 1 cup (240ml) sour cream until smooth.
  9. Gradually whisk in 3.4 oz (96g) instant chocolate pudding mix until well combined.

  11. Pour the filling into the cooled pie crust.
  12. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the pie to set completely.
  13. Garnish with additional whipped cream and shredded coconut before serving.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
