Ingredients

• 2 cups Sweetened shredded coconut
• 1 can Sweetened condensed milk
• 4 Egg whites
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 Unbaked pie crust
• 0.5 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the unbaked pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and set aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk the egg whites until frothy and slightly thickened, but not stiff peaks.

Step 3

Stir in the vanilla extract and salt.

Step 4

Add the sweetened shredded coconut to the bowl and fold gently to combine.

Step 5

Pour the can of sweetened condensed milk into the coconut mixture. Use a spatula to carefully fold the ingredients together until fully incorporated.

Step 6

If using, scatter the semi-sweet chocolate chips on the bottom of the prepared pie crust for a layer of chocolatey goodness.

Step 7

Spoon the coconut mixture into the pie crust, spreading it evenly.

Step 8

Place the pie dish on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 28-32 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is set. Keep an eye on the pie during the last 5 minutes to avoid over-browning.

Step 9

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack. This will allow the filling to set further and make slicing easier.

Step 10

Serve at room temperature, or chill slightly for a firmer texture. Optionally, garnish with a drizzle of melted chocolate or some toasted coconut flakes for added flair.
