Mix in mashed sweet potatoes, milk, and vanilla extract until batter is the consistency of pancake batter. Pour over the crust. 5. Bake in the preheated oven until sweet potato layer is firm, about 30 minutes. 6. Whisk water, 1/2 cup white sugar, and cornstarch together in a small bowl until smooth. 7. Pour coconut milk into a 5-quart saucepan. Bring to a simmer over low heat, about 5 minutes. Pour in water mixture, whisking constantly until coconut milk thickens, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in shredded coconut; cook and stir until mixture thickens, about 5 minutes more. 8. Pour coconut mixture over sweet potato layer.
