MAMA'S BUTTERMILK COCONUT PIE
My mama showed me how to make this pie about 40 years ago, just as her mama showed her how to make it. I was 6 when Mawmaw passed away, but I can still remember her cooking in the kitchen in her beautiful cotton dresses dusted with flour.

This is my Mom's recipe that she passed on to me. Those recipes are the best that have been handed down. We made this together. You have to use the exact name brand ingredients or it will be a dud. It is a great pie! Since it makes 2,you can freeze one for later. So enjoy!

Steps:
- 1. In a large mixing bowl, put 2 cups of sugar and add your 1/2 cup of melted Country Crock butter and stir with a large spoon.
- 2. Now add your 1 cup of whole milk to this mixture and stir with your spoon.
- 3. Add an egg one at a time to your mixture, stirring as you go until you have added all six eggs.
- 4. Now add 1 tablespoon of vanilla flavoring to your mixture and stir well.
- 5. Begin to add your Baker's Angel Flake sweetened coconut a little at a time stirring as you go until you have it completely mixed in your bowl.
- 6. Divide mixture between your two Pet-Ritz pie shells. You may have a little left over. I put my pies on baking sheets lined with Reynolds wrap for spillage. Less mess to clean up.
- 7. Bake at 325 degrees for 30 minutes or until golden brown. Some ovens vary so keep a careful watch. They will not jiggle easily if they are done. Enjoy! Some of my friends love this with a scoop of French vanilla ice cream on top. And some like it plain.
Tips:
- Use fresh shredded coconut for the best flavor and texture.
- Toast the coconut in a preheated oven for a few minutes to deepen the flavor.
- Use full-fat coconut milk for a richer, creamier pie.
- Don't overbake the pie, or the filling will become dry and rubbery.
- Let the pie cool completely before serving, so that the filling has a chance to set.
- Serve the pie with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream for an extra special treat.
