Ingredients: |
|
|
3/4 cup unsalted macadamia nuts, coarsely chopped
1 cup sweetened coconut flakes, shredded
1/3 cup light cream
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 oz. semisweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
2 tbsp. butter
2 eggs
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 9-inch chocolate wafer pie crust
|
Directions:
|
1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Spread nuts and coconut out on a baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until lightly toasted, stirring occasionally. Set aside.
2. Meanwhile, in a saucepan, combine cream, corn syrup, brown sugar, sugar, chocolate, and butter. Stir over low heat until the chocolate and butter have melted and the mixture has come to a simmer, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
3. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs and vanilla until frothy. Slowly whisk the hot chocolate mixture into the eggs. Set aside 1/3 cup of the toasted macadamia-coconut mixture; stir remainder into the chocolate filling.
4. Pour the filling into the pie shell. Set the pie on a baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes, or until pie is beginning to set around the edges.
5. Sprinkle the reserved macadamia-coconut mixture over the top of the pie and bake for about 20 minutes longer, or until the pie is puffed throughout. Set on a rack to cool. Serve lukewarm or at room temperature.
