Mini Coconut Cream Pies

Mini Coconut Cream Pies with a double dosing of shredded coconut. .  because you can never have too much coconut.

Recently, I was reading one of my favorite blogs and started thinking about what my life would be like if I weren’t working from home. If I had never quit my full-time job and became a food blogger and still had an office job in advertising. Let me re-phrase that.  . quit my high stress, working crazy long hours with some crazy, demanding clients, but job that I loved, job.

What would my life be like if I were still working and couldn’t be home with my kids? Would I like it better? Would I be more stressed out? Would my kids be better off?

I have to trust that things happened for a reason and even though sometimes I feel like it’s harder to work from home because there’s really no separation of work and home and that hopefully one day I will look back and know that this is how my kids were supposed to grow up.

With me being here when they get home from school. With me being able to schlep them all around Madison when they have horse back riding camp and are carpooling with two other kids. With me being able to volunteer in their classrooms and attend class field trips.

Some days I hate it. I hate being home. .  because work is work and work can be stressful sometimes and I can’t always drop everything to play Barbies with them when they want me to.

But on a day this week when we got back from the library and were able to sit outside with my neighbor and admire her garden and just chitchat and not have to worry about anything and coming back into the house to get dinner ready. .  and pinning the kids’ summer reading program charts (that we had just picked up from the library) to our bulletin board and hearing Phoebe reading a book to Madeline as I was making dinner, made me realize how grateful I am to be home with my kids. 

Sure, I’ll always have days where I’m stressed out and the kids are driving me crazy and I’ll want to toss them out the window but hopefully there will be more days where I’ll just want to hug and kiss them and hold them tight.

Because they are my people. They are my children. They are a reflection of me and my husband, Paul.

We’re here today to celebrate my dear friend, Zainab. She’s having a baby boy and I am so happy for her. Like, so happy I could cry every time I think about the miracle of childbirth, holding your baby for the first time, knowing your baby’s smell and watching them sleep for hours.

Bringing a little person into this world is life changing and people aren’t joking around when they say “your life will never be the same.”

For Zainab and Justin, my wish is that their lives only get better, stronger and filled with more love. And for her baby boy, who I’m sure will give Zainab the easiest childbirth ever and be the best baby ever . . you are so lucky little one. You have parents who are going to love you. Love you no matter what. So be good to them. They are your family.

Zainab loves coconut so I thought mini coconut cream pies were in order. And ok, yes, I kind of overdid it with the shredded coconut. I couldn’t help myself.

Mini Coconut Cream Pies with a double dosing of shredded coconut. .  because you can never have too much coconut.

Because I love coconut too.

This fabulous coconut custard recipe comes from Allie from Baking A Moment. .  she was my consultant on this recipe. .  I chilled my coconut custard and then filled my mini springform pans and then froze them overnight so they would hold their shape. The freezing overnight probably wasn’t necessary but I wanted to ensure these babies would hold up for their photo shoot.

Mini Coconut Cream Pies

I used almost 2 cups of sweetened shredded coconut but you can use 1 cup if desired.
Course: Dessert
Author: Hip Foodie Mom

Ingredients

For the coconut custard:

  • 1½ cups coconut milk
  • 6 egg yolks
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
  • ½ teaspoon coconut extract

For the crust:

  • 5 or 6 graham crackers broken into large pieces
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons ground flaxseed meal
  • 3 to 4 tablespoons unsalted butter at room temp

For the topping:

  • fresh whipped cream
  • blueberries

Instructions

For the coconut custard:

  • Using a small pot, heat the coconut milk over medium heat until small bubbles begin to form around the edges.
  • In a separate medium sized mixing bowl, whisk the egg yolks together with the sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Slowly pour the hot coconut milk over the egg mixture, while whisking continuously.
  • Place the mixture back into the pot and place over low heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture begins to bubble and becomes very thick.
  • Transfer to a heat safe container and let cool slightly. Mix in the shredded coconut and the coconut extract. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.

For the crust:

  • Using your food processor, pulse together the graham crackers, flaxseed meal and butter until the mixture comes together and resembles coarse, wet sand.

To assemble:

  • Using your greased, prepped mini springform pans, lay in the crust and press down to fill up the bottom of the pans. Top with the coconut custard mixture and place into your freezer overnight. When ready to serve, leave out at room temp and when the pies have reached the desired temperature, top with fresh whipped cream and blueberries and enjoy!

    I know how you feel, Alice! I just quit my full-time (very stressful and high-demanding) job three weeks ago because I’m finally in the position where I can blog full time as my career. I thought I would be working on my blog less since I could do it during the day, but I’m working on it even MORE! It’s crazy, but I love it just the same. I’m sure you made an excellent decision, especially since you’re home with your kids. Now onto these pies! They look so delicious! Love that they’re mini! What a great way to celebrate Zainab!

    I could totally relate to what you were saying about not always knowing if blogging and staying at home is best.. I feel that way sometimes too.. but although we dont have loads of free time, even though we work at home, we get to be there for our kids. When I grew up my Mom worked full time and I remember that sagging feeling coming home everyday to an empty home. I think our children are blessed..
    ps. Love these tarts. Coconut, next to Caramel are my favorite, favortie 🙂

    Whoa, you worked in advertising! I work in advertising now! I do love it, but I can see how I would want to slow down when the time comes for kiddos. Honestly, I appreciate how candid you are about the “love/hate” feelings you have about being home. It feels more human, more genuine that way, because life isn’t always sunshine and rainbows! I can only imagine how I would feel about one day, lol. You’re doing great things for the food blogging community, so keep it up! (Virtual high five)! 🙂

    Every mom has to do what she needs to be happy. For me, that’s part-time motherhood. I would just be such a witch if I stayed home. Bu I’m jealous and in awe of women like you who do it all so well. I wish I could be like that! I’m so glad you’re doing it your best way!

    Alice, this is such a sweet post. Sigh, I know how you feel about work-life separation when you work from home. I remember several times being very stressed out by blogging stuff, and I snapped at my husband a few times. It’s tricky working the balance, but I also need to remember how I enjoy blogging much more than what I would have been doing. Having said all that, I think you are doing a fantastic job!

    And Alice, you can never overdo coconut! LOVE these cream pies. Wish I had some right here to try!

    This is fantastic, Alice! I don’t have any children, but I do have two pups who follow me around the kitchen. They are sometimes needy and just want to be played with while I’m trying to bake or cook; however, I do make the time to go outside and throw the ball around with them. My mom stayed at home with us for a few years before she went back to work and I still have some of the fondest memories from that time. 🙂 Coconut cream pies…oh my goodness. These look beautiful.

    These look amazing– and I love the tiny spring form pans!

    That is the goal– to be able to work from home. I am having my first baby in August (5 weeks- yikes!), and I have been working on several online projects to try to get myself to a place where I can just work from home. I would love to be more “there” for my kids. My mom didn’t work until I was 12 (I was the youngest), and we had the most amazing childhood. It was my house all the neighborhood kids wanted to come to– because my mom was there, making snack, doing crafts or taking us places. It really is so good for the kids!

    I don’t think you’ll ever regret that you elected to work from home. Though stressful at times (Izzy is pushing me over the edge with her wildness in the mornings!), being home for your children is time you’d never get back had you chosen to be out in the corporate world. And you’re almost done with the challenge???? Hooray for you! I hope you saved at least one coconut cream pie to sample—they look incredible!!!

    These little mimi coconut cream pies are adorable, Alice! I don’t have any kids but if I did, I would definitely want to be able to stay home with them. You’re doing what you love – blogging and being at home with your kids, which probably makes you much more happy than working in the corporate world for someone else. 🙂
