Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 0.5 cups Unsweetened shredded coconut
• 6 tablespoons Salted butter, melted
• 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 0.75 cup Heavy cream
• 2 Bananas
• 1.5 cups Coconut milk (full-fat, canned)
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 3 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
• 0.25 cup Toasted coconut flakes (optional, for garnish)
• 2 tablespoons Chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and shredded coconut. Add the melted butter and mix until the texture resembles wet sand.

Step 3

Press the mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Set aside to cool completely.

Step 4

In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and 3 tablespoons of heavy cream. Stir constantly until the chocolate is melted and smooth.

Step 5

Pour the melted chocolate into the cooled crust, spreading it into an even layer. Refrigerate for 15 minutes to set.

Step 6

Slice the bananas into thin rounds and arrange them in a single layer over the hardened chocolate base.

Step 7

In a medium saucepan, whisk together the coconut milk, granulated sugar, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened and bubbling (about 8-10 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 8

Pour the coconut cream filling over the banana layer in the crust. Smooth the top with a spatula and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.

Step 9

Before serving, make the whipped cream topping by beating the whipping cream and powdered sugar in a large bowl until stiff peaks form.

Step 10

Spread the whipped cream over the chilled pie and garnish with toasted coconut flakes and chocolate shavings, if desired.

Step 11

Serve chilled and enjoy your luscious Chocolate Coconut Banana Cream Pie!
