Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (9 inch) pie crust, baked
½ cup white sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
½ teaspoon salt
2 cups milk
2 eggs, separated
2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
3 tablespoons cold water
2 ½ tablespoons rum
1 (1 ounce) square unsweetened chocolate
¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
⅓ cup white sugar

Steps:

  • Soften gelatin in cold water. Melt chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler or in a bowl in the microwave. Stir until smooth. Set aside to cool.
  • Combine 1/2 cup sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a saucepan. Blend together milk and egg yolks, stir into sugar mix. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, just until mixture boils. Remove 1 cup of custard, and combine with chocolate: spread into baked pie shell. Stir softened gelatin into remaining hot custard mix. Stir in rum. Place pan in a bowl of ice water, or refrigerate. Stir occasionally, until mixture mounds slightly when dropped from spoon. Combine chocolate & the reserved custard mix. Pour into baked pie shell.
  • Stir softened gelatin into remaining hot custard mix. Stir in rum. Place pan in a bowl of ice water, or refrigerate. Stir occasionally, until mixture mounds slightly when dropped from spoon.
  • Beat egg whites and cream of tartar until foamy. Beat in 1/3 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, and continue beating until stiff and glossy. Do not underbeat. Fold in chilled custard. Spread over chocolate mixture. Chill at least 3 hours or until set.

I added a layer of fresh raspberries to the pie filling and it was delicious! The tartness of the raspberries balanced out the sweetness of the chocolate and coconut.

I used a store-bought pie crust to save time, and the pie still turned out great. I think it's a good option for people who are short on time or who don't have a lot of experience baking.

I had some trouble getting the crust to come together, but the pie still turned out great. I think I just needed to work the butter into the flour more thoroughly.

This pie is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think it would be perfect for people who have a sweet tooth.

I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but I really enjoyed this pie. The chocolate flavor is dominant and the coconut is just a subtle hint of sweetness.
