Description
For us islanders, it is called “Chocolate Haupia Pie”… and I must say–your ohana (family) will LOVE it and they will give you ‘honi honi’ s (kisses) and say ‘aloha au ia’oe’ (i love you) for the rest of the pie’s existence… Post-pie is up to you whether or not this unusual behaviour continues–but enjoy it while it lasts!!
Mahalo Nui Loa!!

This looks terrific and I made it tonight, which made me realize (of course after I was already in the midst of cooking) that I need some more specifics for this recipe. To start, what size pie crust? I used a 9″ and it was almost overflowing without the whipped cream. Also when it says “reduce the milk mixture” do you mean reduce it in amount by boiling it for a bit or reduce the heat on the milk mixture? An estimate on the amount of time to boil it for would help me. And the only other thing I was wondering is, do I use all the cornstarch/water mixture or should I just stop adding it once the milk mixture begins to thicken? I added it all and the mixture seemed a little gluey.
I am sorry for asking so many questions, I just found the recipe a little confusing once I got into it and I do cook quite a bit. Thanks for the recipe, I cannot wait to eat it tomorrow.
