My Friend's Old Fashioned Coconut Custard Pie image

My good friend & co-worker, Colleen, used to bring this pie to our company pot-lucks. It disappeared like new fallen snow every time, and sometimes caused a scuffle or two...it is that good!! Before she retired she shared the recipe with a few of us. My husband can eat the whole thing in 1 night! On top of that, it is easier...

This pie was a bit bland. I think I would add some spices next time, like cinnamon or nutmeg.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would cut back on the sugar next time. Otherwise, it was a good pie.
