How to Make Kittencal's Old Fashioned Coconut Cream Pie

  1. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine 3 cups of cream of coconut (from a 398ml can or equivalent 14oz can) and 1 cup heavy cream.
  2. Whisk in 3 large eggs until fully combined.
  3. Add 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon coconut extract. Whisk vigorously until smooth.
  4. Microwave on high for 8 minutes (or until thickened), whisking every couple of minutes to prevent scorching. Adjust microwave time based on your appliance.
  5. Pour the filling into a baked and completely cooled pie crust.
  6. Cool the pie on the counter for 20 minutes.
  7. Cover the filling directly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or until very firm.
  8. In a chilled bowl, beat 1 pint (2 cups) heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form. Add 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar and beat until stiff peaks form.
  9. Once the pie is chilled, remove the plastic wrap and top with the whipped cream.
  10. Sprinkle with toasted coconut flakes (see optional step below).
  11. Serve immediately or chill until ready to serve.
