    I have brought this receipe to Maui. This rivals the Haupia Pie that you get there! I have modified this somewhat. I line the pie crust with melted chocolate. YUM!! Then make the filling and top it. Bake as usual. It's GREAT!! and easier!!

    Great coconut flavor and texture. I copied the recipe down rather than printing it so I forgot the flour. NO problem, it turned out great! Even easier and one less ingredient. I have made it twice, once with canned coconut and once with the bagged coconut. Both made a great macaroon like pie.
    Paula, you are the BEST! Thank you.

    I made this tonight for dessert but was pretty disappointed. It was a bit greasy from the butter and tasted kind of like scrambled eggs. The only good part about this recipe was how easy it was to make. The bad thing is I won't ever be making it again.

    As is the case with many of the FN chefs' recipes, one or two ingredients are changed and it is called something else. This recipe is just like the recipe for French Coconut Pie located in The L&S Savannah Country Cookbook, except in that recipe 1 cup regular milk is used. In any event, it's a gtood recipe, as is the French Coconut Pie. Also one reviewer Anonymous 05/09/2008, referenced this recipe as "crustless." I don't see where they got crustless, as this recipe does call for one unbaked pie shell.

    I prepared this pie for the Christmas holiday. I do not care for coconut at all, but I found myself nibbling on this pie. I twas absolutely DE-LISH ! The flavor/texture is great.

    I did not find that not using the recommeded flour made a difference. I give this pie * 5 * stars. Thanks again, Paula!

    I can't believe how easy this is to make. It took less than 5 minutes to mix it all together and get it in the oven. I love pies but hate pie crust. The typical American pie crust is always so bland and tasteless and detracts from the flavor of the filling. Well, this pie is the perfect solution for that problem. I love that it's crustless. I only wish all pies were crustless. Some complained that it's too sweet, but I thought it was just right. And others complained that it never firmed up, but I didn't have that problem. Baking on the middle rack, it was done at exactly 50 minutes. And someone even said it was like creme brulee, and it's definitely not. The texture is much firmer and thicker than creme brulee. It really is very much like a traditional buttermilk or chess pie without the crust. This is going to be a regular in my household, especially since it calls for ingredients that I always have on hand.
