  1. Brown Sugar Crust Preparation:

Pour the mixture into the prepared pie shell and bake at 350 degrees F for 12 minutes or until filling is set. Remove from oven and cool for 15 minutes. Do not turn oven off.

  7. Beat egg whites until light and frothy. Add cream of tartar and continue beating until the whites form stiff peaks. Gradually beat in sugar, then coconut cream and coconut flavor and mix for several more seconds. Carefully spoon meringue onto warm pie. Return pie to oven to brown meringue (about 6 to 7 minutes). Remove pie from oven and refrigerate until chilled. Can garnish pie with toasted coconut.
