Lately I seem to be all into the little individual servings of things. Macaroni and cheese cupcakes. French toast muffins. Banana bites. So when I spied this recipe for little individual chocolate coconut cream pies on the always fabulous Baking Bites website it made my heart go pitter-pat. Yes, a chocolate coconut cream pie where you can have the entire thing YOURSELF and not feel the slightest bit guilty.
Now, I am very sure that there is some recipe out there in the world somewhere that calls for making your own homemade graham cracker individual perfect crusts, but this is one of those cases where I invoked the chicken fried steak rule (and for you newer readers who have NO idea what I am talking about, click HERE). Anyway, this particular recipe called for using individual pre-made graham cracker crusts, and I thought there was no way on earth my supermarket was going to have them.
But lo and behold! there they were right there in the baking aisle.
Now, one word about these little crusts. They come in foil pans, which was rubbing me the wrong way in terms of the whole look of my little pies. I tried taking one out of the foil pan before I started and it broke into a million delicious, unusable pieces. BUT…after the crusts were filled and chilled down in the fridge, they popped out very easily — I pushed up just a little on the bottom to ease it out.
And then I felt like all was right with the world.
So the next time you are hankering for something a little bit chocolate and a little bit coconut, these are for you!

So I said to my husband," omigod, baby chocolate and coconut cream pies !"and he said … what is baby chocolate?

I love personal-sized things also. Don't you just feel so much less guilty eating them? They look fantastic!
I'm a sucker for miniature food- tiny pies are my favorite. That's one scrumptious looking little pie!
That looks fantastic! I love the chocolate/coconut duo.
