Coconut Pie

SUBMITTED BY: Mary McGuire

"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"

I was looking for a quick and uncomplicated recipe for pie and boy did I strike gold!! I have cooked this pie 3 times in a little over a week!! Since my grandmother passed away I haven't had a good home cooked coconut pie. My son who is sooooo picky nearly at the first pie right by himself. I couldn't believe it. I took one pie to work and it was a huge hit. It's so simple. Be sure and use the deep dish crust!! Thanks!

Great pie. Reminded me of an old fashion coconut pie. Added 1 cup of sweetened coconut but it was a little too stiff. Next time I will add only 3/4 cup to the recipe. Very easy. Love it!

Delicious, coconutty (I used 1 Cup of coconut), tastes good on its own or with vanilla ice cream. I will definitely make this again.
