Chocolate haupia pie is a dish of Hawaiian cuisine.
It is made with a haupia layer on top, then a chocolate pudding layer, all over a pie crust.




Background


Cacao has been grown on Hawaii for decades and recently chocolate has been produced commercially. Haupia has been a traditional dish on Hawaii.




Preparation


The base of the pie typically consists of a baked crust. The top layer of the pie is haupia, made by cooking a mixture of coconut milk, water, sugar, and cornstarch until it thickens to a smooth, pudding-like consistency.
The bottom layer introduces chocolate, made by melting semi-sweet chocolate chips with coconut milk. This chocolate mixture is combined with the remaining haupia and poured on the pie crust. Once the pie is assembled, it is refrigerated to allow both the haupia and chocolate layers to set.
The pie is typically finished with a layer of whipped cream, made by whipping heavy cream with sugar until it forms soft peaks.




Popularity


Ted's Bakery is a bakery on Oahu that is known for this pie and at one point making over one thousand each week.
It has spread outside Hawaii to other places such as San Francisco.
Right before one Thanksgiving, Google released data that showed that haupia pie was the most commonly searched pie in the state of Hawaii.
It can also be incorporated into a paleo diet.




Variations


It can sometimes be served in bite-sized square pieces rather than an entire pie.
