What better way to enjoy Chocolate Pie than topped with toasted coconut and pecans? The toasting brings out the amazing flavors and adds to the pudding pie.

Chocolate Pie

My very most favorite pie is Blueberry Pie. My husband’s favorite is Chocolate Pie. With pudding. Whenever I am assigned to bring a pie to Thanksgiving, I make Chocolate Pie. It’s the only pie he likes, actually. See? I’m an awesome wife. Then I go and add toasted coconut and toasted pecans to make it even better. Super awesome wife.

Just toasting the coconut was amazing. I used a shortcut and put it on a microwave safe plate and heated it in the microwave to toast it. It smelled divine. I toasted the pecans in the oven at 350 degrees for about 6 minutes. My crust was made with shortbread cookies and I can’t Believe It’s Not Butter. Easy Peasy.
