Very Good

This pie was very good although a little on the sweet side. I would make it again. Had it for card night

Excellent..but I wonder....

I used merengue too...but I wonder how it would work if I used fat free half and half....gonna have to try that. 24gms of fat per serving is a lot.

Cook what 30 minutes?

The recipe instructions are contradictive. What do you cook 30 minutes? The sauce? And, then refrigerate until firm after pouring into pie shell?

One little change, a great big difference!

This is a great pie, but if you really want to make it taste like grandmother used to make, substitute fresh whipped sweetened or unsweetened whipped cream instead of the whipped topping. It makes a lot of difference in the flavor; really quite elegant.

So Tasty It'll Go To Your Waisty!!!

This is a very delicious coconut pie; however, the one thing I changed about it was I topped it with a meringue instead of whipped cream.

Here's an easy, reliable way to ensure a moist and flavorful turkey...simply baste the turkey with chicken stock during roasting. When the turkey is done, use a bit more stock to make a quick and tasty gravy.
