Well I thought I'd never find a coconut cream pie I liked better than Joanne Chang's recipe, but this one topped it. Looks like the recipe's been online for years but I happened to just see it on the SLT blog. Made it yesterday and between baking it in a glass dish, coconut in the crust, and rolling it out to 1/8" thickness, it was the best crust ever. And the filling was amazing -- perhaps because you cook it with the coconut? Most recipes usually add the coconut after the pastry cream is made. The white chocolate shavings on top were a delicious addition too.
Anyway, if you're a coconut pie lover, it's probably right up your alley!
