Look at this image. That's right. If you mix this up, that is exactly what you get. Creamy, buttery coconut goodness on a biscuit base. No more, no less. Mix link.
- 2.00% - FLV Sweet Coconut
- 0.75% - FA Coco (Coconut)
- 1.50% - TFA Bavarian Cream
- 1.00% - INW Biscuit
- 1.00% - TFA Butter
- 1.00% - TFA Toasted Marshmallow
- 3.00% - TFA Whipped Cream
I'm not going to lie. This is the result of straight-up copying the top half of Leche de Coco by /u/hashslingingslashur and the bottom half of my personal recipe of the year 2018, Buttermilk Pie by /u/xGRANITEx (Silky) with barely adjusted percentages.
Coconut topping (front note): The FLV Sweet Coconut and FA Coco is the holy duality that makes every good coconut recipe. The TFA Bavarian Cream adds a touch of vanilla. I originally thought a custard will do the trick. However, custard is very heavy, too eggy, distracting from the fragile coconut flavor.
Cream topping (base): The TFA Butter, TFA Toasted Marshmallow and TFA Whipped Cream create a juicy, fluffy cream base. There's not much more to say about this. It worked so well for Buttermilk Pie and it's going to work well here. And it's cheap, all TFA.
Biscuit crust (back note): INW Biscuit is the industry standard biscuit base for good reason. It's rich and doesn't need a lot of help from other flavors. It's buttery, caramelly sweet, and crisp and a perfect fit for the cake part.
Let me know what you think, and thanks to /u/hashslingingslashur and /u/xGRANITEx for doing all the hard work with these excellent recipes.
Something just great about coconut vapes. Pistachio really tickles the taste buds as well. I wonder how the 2 of them would mix
That makes me think of that odd “green dessert” thing that many grandmas made, with a crumbly pie crust in the bottom, topped with pistachio pudding, pineapple chunks, whipped cream, shaved coconut, and maraschino cherries.
Coconut and pistachio would be great together.
I just mixed this with 2.5 of flavorah whipped cream because I didn't have TPA whipped cream and off the shake: this recipe is spectacular, it tastes like the picture, a soft creamy coconut with a buttery biscuit
Oh my god, thank you. I've been looking for a good coconut cream pie recipe forever since Leche de Coco.
Two of my friends, their favorite flavors are coconut cream pie and pistachio pound cake (I made him KRUCIAL Pistachio Pound Cake and he loved it), and now that I read /u/pipedreamer79's comment I want to make a pistachio coconut cream pie, and your recipe is definitely going to be the base.
I finally ordered the flavors I needed to vape this after having it saved since I saw it. Damn. This is my favorite DIY so far. Good, good job. I can’t stop vaping it long enough to steep so I’m just gonna have to make another batch or five for the steeping drawer.
You think this would this be terrible with just the Sweet Coconut? Maybe something else to mimic the sweetness..a bit of Vanilla Swirl?...a few drops of FLV Macaroon maybe? Hmm, no, that has a slight spice layer to it, so not that..there's gotta be something on my shelf...I don't have any more Coco :-(
Recipe looks great though, and seems like the coconut might be interchangeable with other flavors for a different type of pie, may have to experiment with some stuff. Been vaping basically the same 5 or 6 recipe rotation for like a year now, got lazy, I have hundreds of flavors and most have been sitting there, time to switch gears...
FA Coco is more earthy, like the coconut shell if that makes any sense. Try mixing it without the FA, but don't substitute it and let me think how it turns out.
Hmm, yeah I think I will maybe mix up two smaller batches, one as is minus Coco, and the maybe one keeping what you said in mind and also reading some reviews on it and experimenting a bit. I definitely will check back in! How long do you reccomend steeping it, about a week, or is it a longer one?
I don’t have TPA whipped cream but I do have Cap’s whipped cream. Can anyone compare?
I love Buttermilk Pie and I love coconut but for some reason I don't get much coconut from this recipe. Definitely this is my problem because I've tried other coconut recipes and don't get much coconut either. Do you think replacing some TFA Butter with FLV Coconut will do the trick?
