Due to ingredients on hand, I used a mixture of 1% milk, 1/2 and 1/2, heavy cream, and coconut milk!!! Delicious!! Set up well, and I cooked it in the microwave.

this was easy to make and tastes delicious. The only difference I would make to the recipe next time is to reduce the sugar. It is VERY sweet. I used desucated coconut in the pie and shredded coconut for the toasted coconut on top.

This is a great recipe! I made this for a co-workers birthday this week. I used 3 cups of cream, instead of the recommended half coconut milk half cream, just because that is what I had. I also toasted all of the coconut! Not sure if it was a mistake on my part, I must not of read the directions to closely! But anyways, toasted coconut in the pie and on top of the pie tasted good!
And I made my own whip cream, could not bring myself to use cool whip! Very delicious and will make again!

I could not find coconut milk (go figure) so I used Cream of Coconut instead. It was a good pie but not what I normally think of when I think of coconut cream pie. It was pretty good though, my husband wolfed it down.

Great pie recipe! I did sub some stuff in and out (I added a little extra cream and used a half cup of flour instead of cornstarch) and so far at least it’s great (it hasn’t totally cooled yet, but it looks like it’s setting up). Absolutely delicious, I can’t stop licking the bowl The coconut milk gives it a real coconut taste that’s awesome.

For people who got lumps, just whisk the cornstarch and eggs together first in a cold pan.. once those are pretty smooth, whisk in the sugar. Once that’s smooth, put it over the heat and add everything else. Mixing the starch with a fat makes sure it starts smooth. After that, just keep whisking every now and then!

I just made this pie today and did we ever enjoy it! It was so simple to make. I bought a Keebler shortbread pie crust and just followed the directions to make the filling. It was very good. So easy and delicious!

WONDERFUL PIE!!!
This was the tastiest, easiest pie EVER!!!

I baked this pie for a friend’s mom who taught her daughter and I how to put up pickled beets this past weekend – what fun – I love pickled beets and she loves coconut cream pie!

Right at the very very end of the thickening process, mine got a little lumpy – it still tasted great and ended up adding a little texture to the pie – we gobbled it up with coffee waiting for the beets to cool.

Next, she’s teaching us baklava – I can hardly wait!

Thank you so much for sharing.
