Ingredients
Instructions
- Put the pie crust in a pie shell.
- Layer the chocolate chips, pecans, and coconut in the pie shell in that order.
- Pour the sweetened condensed milk over the ingredients.
- Bake for 30 to 45 minutes or until the chocolate chips melt.
- Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Slice into small pieces to serve.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet. You can substitute the pecans with walnuts or almonds if desired. If you prefer a less sweet pie, use unsweetened coconut flakes. To enhance the texture, lightly toast the nuts before adding them to the pie. Be careful not to overbake; the filling should be slightly gooey.
Serving Suggestions
Serve this chocolate chip pie warm or at room temperature. A scoop of vanilla ice cream on top complements the rich flavors beautifully. Alternatively, pair it with whipped cream or a drizzle of caramel sauce for an indulgent treat. It also goes well with a cup of coffee or a scoop of your favorite ice cream.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place individual slices in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds or warm the whole pie in a preheated oven at 250°F for 10-15 minutes until heated through.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different type of milk instead of sweetened condensed milk?
Sweetened condensed milk is key to the texture and sweetness of this pie. However, you could make a homemade version using evaporated milk and sugar if necessary, but the results may vary in sweetness and consistency.
What can I do if my pie crust is too soggy?
If your pie crust turns out soggy, consider partially baking it before adding the filling. This technique, known as blind baking, helps set the crust. Additionally, using a thicker layer of chocolate chips can also help absorb some moisture.
How do I know when the pie is done baking?
The pie is done when the edges are golden brown and the center is set but still slightly jiggly. The chocolate chips should be melted, and a toothpick inserted in the center should come out with a few moist crumbs. Avoid overbaking.
