Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Fit the pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate and blind-bake for 10 minutes.
  2. In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the salted butter and chocolate chips, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool.
  3. Whisk in the eggs, sweetened condensed milk, kosher salt, and vanilla extract into the cooled chocolate mixture until combined.
  4. Fold in the chopped pecans and shredded coconut until evenly mixed.
  5. Pour the filling into the pre-baked pie crust and bake for 30-35 minutes, until edges are firm and center jiggles slightly.
  6. Let the pie cool for at least 1 hour before serving. Add whipped cream and shaved chocolate on top before serving.
