Prep: 10 min. Bake: 50 min. + cooling
Yield: 6-8 servings.

Watching my mother cook from scratch, I hardly knew that anything was available "pre-made" until I'd left home. One of Mom's best desserts is her creamy old-fashioned coconut pie. A rich slice is true comfort food. —Mary McGuire, Graham, North Carolina

Ingredients:
• 1-1/2 cups milk
• 1 cup sugar
• 3/4 cup flaked coconut
• 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon butter, melted
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 unbaked pastry shell (9 inches)

Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the milk, sugar, coconut, eggs, flour, butter and vanilla. Pour into pie shell.

2. Bake at 350° for 50 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool to room temperature. Refrigerate leftovers.
