Recipe Introduction
Pumpkin and coconut is another unusual taste combination. Don't turn your nose up until you try it. My taste testers said it was one of the most beautiful-looking and great-tasting pumpkin pie they had ever tried! And if you never thought of combining pumpkin with butterscotch pudding mix, after only one bite, you will be glad I did.
