In a medium saucepan, combine half-and-half, eggs, sugar, flour and salt. Bring to a boil over low heat, stirring constantly. Remove from heat, and stir in 3/4 cup of the coconut and the vanilla extract. Pour into pie shell and chill 2 to 4 hours, or until firm.
Top with whipped topping, and with remaining 1/4 cup of coconut.
Note: To toast coconut, spread it in an ungreased pan and bake in a 350 degree F (175 degrees C) oven for 5 to 7 minutes, or until golden brown, stirring occasionally.

03/07/08 02:54 PM | 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? |

01/27/08 11:08 PM | 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. |
