"Really easy and tasty dessert. The flour sinks to form a crust, the middle is a custard and the top is coconut. Serve chilled with a dollop of Cool Whip."

This is my favorite coconut pie to make. I have even substituted Splenda for baking for the sugar in it and it turned out great.

I love this recipe..couldn't be easier. My husband devoured it. In fact, he suggested that next time I make it, that I add crushed pinneaple. Should go good with the coconut. Thanks for the recipe. It's a keeper!

Brought back memories of something my Nanna used to cook when I was little (a very long time ago).Incredibly easy, nice custard centre, yum. It is winter here, and it was a perfect way to finish dinner.

I made 3 of these for Easter. I started out making just one, and my hubby ate it all, just after proclaiming, "I don't like coconut" The next two I experimented made one with lemon and one without coconut, but added pecans. All 3 were very good but the orginal was great. P.S. I used coconut milk instead of regular milk.

I hadn't thought of this pie in years. My mother made this often when I was growing up. I did cut the margerine in half, but otherwise made it as posted. Thanks for the memory!

As a little girl, I used to make this with my mom. It brings back such great memories, however, back then I was always sad to see it sink in the middle. However, after years of baking I learnt not to take these sort of desserts out of the oven immediately. Instead, turn off the oven and let the pie slowly cool. I used Splenda instead of sugar and only used 1/4 cup of butter and it worked perfectly. I didn't use a pie plate either. . . I used individual ramikins. Added a perfect touch!

This pie was certainly easy to make however, I think it would be helpfull to include in the instructions how to test when it's done, i.e. when tester comes out clean. I guess we're not such coconut lovers BUT I gave the recipe to my Aunt & we came up with a variation for non coconut lovers that came out very good. Substitute ground nuts for the coconut & add choclate chips according to how chocolatey you want it.
