How to Make Pineapple Coconut Chess Pie (with a bonus Chocolate Chess Pie)

This pie has the tropical flare of coconut and pineapple together, so let's dive in and make this pineapple coconut chess pie, step by step.
 
Ingredients you'll need:
- a nine inch pie shell (deep dish)
- granulated sugar (2 cups)  
- large eggs (4)
- butter, softened (1 stick)  
- sweetened coconut (1 cup)
- drained and crushed pineapple (1 cup)
- vanilla (a teaspoon)
- cornstarch (a tablespoon)

Start by preheating the oven to 400 degrees. Let's start with the pie crust. Fit the pie crust into your nine-inch pie plate, and crimp the edges. Add foil on top of your pie crust and add pie weights on top. Place the pie crust on a baking sheet and put it in the oven. Bake for ten minutes, then remove the pie weights. Bake for another three minutes or so. Take the pie crust out and cut the oven temp to 350 degrees.

Picture
Mix all the other ingredients together in a bowl and use a whisk, electric mixer, or stand mixer to thoroughly combine everything.
 
Place the pie back in the oven and cook at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes, but start checking things at around 35 minutes. You can tell the pie is done once the filling jiggles a bit in the middle. If you think the crust is browning faster than the rest of the pie is cooking, you can cover it with foil.
 
Take the pie out of the oven and transfer to a wire rack. Let it cool completely before serving. Feel free to add whipped cream.
 
As a bonus, let's thrown in a recipe for chocolate chess pie. This is a very Southern dish and results in a rich, chocolatey pie (as you might expect). It has the flavor of a brownie, but the texture of custard (as chess pies tend to have).
 
Here is what you'll need for the chocolate chess pie:
 
- nine-inch pie crust
- sugar (1.5 cups)
- all-purpose flour (1 tablespoon)
- milk (half cup)
- two large eggs
- unsalted butter (quarter cup)
- unsweetened chocolate (1.5 ounces)
- vanilla extract (a teaspoon)
- pinch of salt
 
Get your ingredients together and preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Place parchment or foil over your unbaked pie shell and add pie weights. Place in the oven and bake for about 15 minutes. At this point you can remove the foil or parchment paper and the pie weights. Place the pie back in the oven for about five more minutes. Remove the pie crust and leave it.
 
Now lower the oven temp to about 350 degrees. Bring a saucepan full of water to a simmer and place a heatproof bowl on top (or use a double boiler). Add the chocolate and butter to the bowl, and stir until everything is nice and melted. Remove the bowl from the heat.
 
Now that the butter and chocolate are mixed, add your flour, sugar, eggs, milk, vanilla, and salt. Use an electric mixer (or stand mixer or whisk) to beat everything together, around 5 minutes. You'll need to scrape the sides and mix back in with a spatula periodically.
 
The chocolate filling is ready, so pour it into the pie shell. Bake around 35 to 45 minutes at 350 degrees, until the filling looks done.
 
Remove the pie and let it cool, then refrigerate so that it is completely chilled before you serve it/eat it.
