Chocolate Haupia Pie

This chocolate haupia pie recipe is inspired from Ted’s Bakery, one of the North Shore’s hidden gems. This little market in Sunset Beach is a favorite hangout for locals who can’t get enough of this tropical pie, topped with coconut haupia custard, plenty of whipped cream and chocolate shavings.

To make this recipe, you’ll need a nice flaky baked pie crust. You can buy one at the store, or use my easy pie crust recipe. Feel free to add more or less chocolate vs. haupia filling to your likingI personally think it’s the best chocolate pie ever!

Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

Cornstarch Slurry

• 1/2 cup cornstarch
• 1 cup water

Haupia Custard

• 1 cup whole milk
• 1 cup sugar
• 14 ounces coconut milk

Chocolate Filling

• 7 ounces semi-sweet chocolate

Whipped Cream

• 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 3 tablespoons white sugar

Crust

• 1 baked 10-inch homemade pie crust or use store-bought

Instructions

 

• In a measuring cup, mix 1/2 cup cornstarch into 1 cup of water and let it dissolve. This is your cornstarch slurry, which will thicken the haupia custard.
• Over medium heat, bring 1 cup whole milk, 1 cup of sugar and 14 ounces of coconut milk to a boil. Reduce the heat on the milk to a simmer and stir in the cornstarch mixture. Now, we stir continuously until it thickens up.
• In a saucepan, melt 7 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in half of the coconut mixture.
• Top the baked pie crust with the chocolate pie filling, then add the layer of reserved Hawaiian coconut haupia custard on top. Refrigerate this for one hour.
• Whisk the whipped cream until stiff peaks form.
• Remove the pie from the refrigerator. Top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings, and serve immediately.
