Preparation
- Pie Crust: 1.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
- In the bowl of a food processor, combine flour, sugar, and salt.
- Add in butter, and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
- Distribute the water over the mixture and pulse until the water is well-distributed and the mixture holds together like dry clay.
- Dump mixture onto a floured board, knead a time or two, form into a disk, and wrap in plastic wrap.
- Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.
- Pound dough with a rolling pin a few times to soften the butter.
- On a well-floured board, roll into an 11 inch circle.
- Place the dough in a 9 inch pie plate.
- Roll up the edges and crimp with your fingers or a fork.
- Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork a few times.
- Refrigerate 20 minutes.
- Place a large circle of parchment paper in the center of the chilled crust, and fill with a pound of dried beans (you can reuse them for this purpose again and again).
- Bake for 15 minutes with the beans in.
- Remove from the oven, take out the beans and parchment paper, and bake again for about 10 minutes, or until the center starts to turn golden brown.
- Pie: 1.
- In a medium saucepan set over medium heat, bring the milk almost to a boil.
- Meanwhile, whisk sugar and egg yolks in a large glass bowl until pale yellow, smooth, and falling in ribbons.
- Whisk in corn starch until smooth.
- Whisk in hot milk, a half a cup at a time until mixture is warm to the touch.
- Pour entire mixture back into the saucepan and whisk constantly until pudding starts to get very thick and bubbly.
- Pull off the heat and add in coconut, vanilla, coconut extract, if using, and butter.
- Pour into prepared pie shell.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Whipped Cream: 1.
- Beat all ingredients together until stiff peaks form.
- Do not over beat.
