Instructions

  • Place milk (and coconut) into a small pot over medium heat. Bring to simmer.
  • In a small bowl, stir eggs, egg yolks, sugar, and flour together until combined. Slowly whisk hot milk into the egg mixture. Place hot milk and egg mixture back into the hot pot and bring to boil. Whisk while boiling filling, 2 minutes, or until very thick. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla (and coconut) extract.
