This was easy to prepare. I have never made a coconut cream pie before so I wasn't sure what to expect. It didn't take as long as I thought it would and my fear of it not setting up was for not. The pie set up beautifully. We liked the taste and using whipped cream made it very easy. Thank you for sharing with us your recipe.

I agree with Mrs.Khaylis this pie is DIVINE! Although, my store did not have Coco Lopez, I ended up using Thai Kitchen Coconut Milk. I'm thinking the Coco Lopez is sweeter, so I ended up adding a little Splenda after I made the filling just to sweeten it up a little. For personal preference I topped with Whipped Cream Icing #8605. This pie holds up beautifuly! Each slice comes out perfectly without the rest of the pie oozing into the cut out space -- yet it's not too firm. Can't wait to make this again! Thanks for posting!
