For those who are having problems with this recipe, try this variation. 1 1/2 c sugar, 4 eggs beat in one at a time, 2 tbs flour (I just stick the tbs in and add whatever gets caught in the spoon 1 stick melted butter after it's cooled, and 1 cup buttermilk. I set the oven between 350-375 and after laying out the crust in the pan, let it sit in the oven for about 3-5 mins. Pull out, and let cool. I add about a half a cup or so of coconut to the mixture and whisk through. Pour the mixture in the crust, then add a light layer of coconut on top, semi sweet chocolate chips, and pecan chips. Slide in the oven, and check the pie at about 35 mins, and lightly tap it. It should be set at 35-40 mins. I've taken this variation to work several times and my co-workers seem to love it.

This pie is the greatest! Cooking time is more like 45-55 minutes. Nice zing from the lemon/buttermilk and sweetness from the suger. Properly cooked this is a great and easy pie. I did add some vanilla and nutmeg to taste
