Kittencals Bakery Coconut Cream Pie Recipes

Steps:

• In a saucepan, heat half and half with the coconut milk over medium heat, until steaming.
• In a large bowl,whisk 1/2 cup sugar with the cornstarch; whisk in the eggs until blended.
• Gradually mix in hot milk mixture into the egg mixture to thin, in a steady stream.
• Return the mixture to saucepan; cook, over medium heat, whisking constantly, for about 10 minutes, or until thickened to pudding consistency.
• Transfer to a bowl; stir in coconut extract (if using) and vanilla then mix in 1 cup coconut.
• Place plastic wrap directly on surface of pudding mixture; refrigerate until cool.
• In a bowl, whip whipping cream with 1/4 cup of the remaining sugar to soft peaks.
• Set 1-1/2 cups of the whipped cream aside to use for topping.
• Fold the remaining whipped cream into the cooled filling; spread into pie shell.
• Using a piping bag, or with a spoon, garnish top with reserved whipping cream.
• Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons toasted coconut.
• Refrigerate for 1 hour, or until set or for up to 1 day.

Steps:

• Measure the 398-ml can of coconut milk with the table cream to make 3 cups, then place in a large microwave-safe bowl (I use my 8-cup Pyrex measuring cup for this).
• Add in the eggs and whisk until completely combined with the milk.
• Add in sugar, flour, salt, vanilla and coconut extract (if using) whisk vigorously to combine.
• Place in microwave and cook on HIGH removing about every couple of minutes to whisk (you must whisk vigorously every time removing as the mixture tends to thicken more around the edges of the bowl so it must be blended all together) cook until thickened and smooth, in my microwave it takes about 8 minutes to thicken.
• Pour the filling into baked cooled pie crust; cool for 20 minutes on the counter then place a piece of plastic wrap directly over the cooked filling.
• Refrigerate for 6 hours or until very firm (can leave in the fridge for up to 24 hours).
• In a large well-chilled bowl beat 1 pint (2 cups) whipping cream until just thickened, then add in 2 tablespoons confectioners sugar and continue beating until quite stiff (you may refrigerate the whipped cream until ready to use).
• After pie is cooled remove plastic wrap and top with whipped cream, sprinkle cooled toasted coconut over the whipped cream, serve immediately or chill until ready to serve.
• OPTIONAL; for toasting coconut; set oven to 325 degrees F.
• Place about 1/2 cup coconut on a baking sheet and bake until light golden brown stirring occasionally (about 4-5 minutes, watch closely do not burn as the coconut browns quickly!).
• Sprinkle the toasted coconut on top of the whipped cream.
• Serve and enjoy!

Steps:

• Grease a round 2-quart casserole dish or an 11 x 7-inch baking dish.
• For the sauce; in a skillet or saucepan brown the ground beef with onion and red chili flakes until no longer pink.
• Drain fat then add in garlic, oregano and basil; cook for 2 minutes.
• Add in tomato sauce, mushrooms and 1/2 teaspoon salt, bring to a boil over medium heat stirring.
• Reduce heat to low and simmer for 30-40 minutes stirring occasionally, season with more salt to taste if desired.
• Meanwhile cook the spaghetti in boiling water until almost tender (undercook the spaghetti as it will soften up even more when baked in the oven) drain in a colander then rinse under cold water, drain well again then place into a large bowl.
• Add in melted butter, garlic powder, eggs, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese and black pepper; using clean hands toss/mix until well combined (use hands for mixing spaghetti this will not work with a spoon) season with salt to taste if desired.
• TO ASSEMBLE; spread the spaghetti mixture evenly into bottom of the pie plate, pressing down with hands to flatten.
• In a bowl mix 2 cups cottage cheese with 1/4 cup Parmesan and 1 cup mozzarella cheese cheese then spread over the spaghetti.
• Dollop the tomato sauce mixture over the cottage cheese then spread out with a spoon.
• Top with 1 cup or more of mozzarella cheese.
• Cover with foil and bake at 350°F for 30 minutes.
• Uncover and continue to bake 10-15 minutes more or until hot and bubbly.
