Pineapple and coconut cream pie





This pie combines the rich flavor of coconut and pineapple for an authentic Caribbean feeling. Serve it as a dessert for a summer barbeque.





1 9'; already cooked pie crust


3 egg yolks


1/2 cup sugar


1 1/2 tbs cornstarch


1 cup pineapple juice


1/2 cup heavy cream, whipped


1/2 cup coconut, shredded





1 - Set up a double boiler and bring the water to boiling point. Let it simmer.





2 - Mix sugar and cornstarch in one bowl. Beat the egg yolks and pour them in the upper part of the double boiler. Stir in sugar, cornstarch, and 1/4 cup coconut, a little at a time. When combined, add the pineapple juice and stir again.





3 - Set the pan over the boiling water -make sure that the pan does not touch the hot water- and let it simmer, stirring, until the custard has thickened and has a creamy texture. Let it cool.





4 - When both, custard and pie shell, are cold, pour the custard into the pie shell, top with whipped cream, and sprinkle the other half of the shredded coconut over it.
