Chocolate Coconut Pecan Pie

Combine in a small bowl and set aside:
1/4 tsp baking powder
2 TBSP flour
1/4 tsp salt

Cream together:
1/4 cup softened butter
3/4 cup brown sugar

Beat in 4 large egg yolks and 2 tsp vanilla.  Add dry ingredients.  Stir in:
1 cup coconut
1 cup coarsely chopped pecans
1/2 cup chocolate chips (coarsely chopped)
3/4 cup heavy cream

Pour into prepared pie crust. Bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes or until crust is golden brown.  Center will still be a bit jiggly.  Garnish with pecan halves.  Cool to room temperature then chill for 2 hours before serving.  Serve with ice cream.
