Coconut Cream Pie




Source of Recipe


From: Suzy (SUZYJ31)


Recipe Introduction


Here is the recipe I use. My coconut cream pies I think are truly very good. I make a vanilla puddiing from scratch, but the secret ingredient is I replace the milk with unsweetened coconut milk. It is used in oriental recipes. Most grocery stores carry it. And it makes this pie just wonderful. I am not a meringue person so I use cool whip or freshly whipped cream on the top. Try this little suggestion for your pie. And I always use Baker's coconut. You get what you pay for in food.


List of Ingredients




1 Baked Pie Crust, cooled.
3 eggs
1 can of evaporated milk { unsweetened coconut milk}
5 tab of cornstarch
1 cup of sugar
2 tsp. vanilla
3 tab butter
Add 1 cup of grated coconut ( baker's) when finished.
