This was ok. The topping needs some more flavor, and my crust burned a little. Everyone else loved it though. I also substituted different nuts, using what I had on hand.

Delcious. 2nd pie I ever made turned out into 'Perfection'. Kind of obsessing!

I made this pie for Mother's Day dinner, and everyone absolutely loved it :) My husband made a point to tell me 3 different times that it was his favorite pie ever! I guess I'll be making this recipe many more times. Only change I made was I doubled the coconut so that I would have a thicker coating on the bottom. I read that some people thought less nuts, but I completely disagree. It's an amazing recipe. Thank you Linda for sharing.

This is the first pie I ever made (we don't have them in Europe) and it was excellent - I happen to like that it was not overly sweet, yet full of flavor. Just one thing: it took 15-20 minutes longer to bake than the recipe said it would. A little confusing for a first-time pie baker like me, but it all turned out well in the end and everyone else liked it too. Try hazelnuts as a replacement for the macadamia - also great!

This was an interesting recipe. I love macadamia nuts, but this pie needed more sugar. I think I was expecting something as rich as my pecan pie. I also would reduce the amount of nuts to 1 1/2 cups and increase the coconut to 1/2 cup.

I love this pie. In fact, I brought this to a friend's potluck and everyone loved it just as much. All 8 of us agreed it would be worth it to diet all week just to have a big slice of this pie for dessert! Thanks for this one.
