Wow! After I finshed making this pie, my husband saw it and said, "That looks like it was professionally made!" It was a beautiful presentation, and it tasted scrumptious! I even dropped my pre-made pie crust on the counter, and it crumpled into a million pieces. I scooped it up and put the pieces back into the foil pie frame, and finished pouring the filling into it. It wasn't pretty, but the filling tasted so yummy, I just had to finish making it. It was well worth it- this recipe makes a fabulous pie, and it comes together so quickly and easily! I highly recommend it and will definitely make this again!

Made this over the weekend for guests and it was very good, although a little sweet for my taste. I would definitely decrease the sugar amount next time. Also, recipe doesn't specify whether you should use sweetened or unsweetened coconut. I used sweetened and I suppose that could also make a difference. Topped it with whipped cream instead of the whipped topping. Thanks for sharing your recipe, Sugarpea.

A winner Sugarpea! A delicious dessert, rated 5*'s by all who shared the pie!! I will make this again, but reduce the sugar by 1/4 cup, it is quite sweet. I skipped the whipped topping and sprinkled the toasted coconut on top of the filling (fewer calories without the cream!!) Yummy!!

This was one four pies I fixed for Thanksgiving. It was the most popular. I had to hunt down unsweetened coconut at the health food store but I am glad I did because it ended up being perfect. I can imagine it would have been far too sweet if I had tried using sweetened coconut. Coconut Cream is one of my mother's favorites and she said this was the best she has had in a long time. My husband requested pumpkin but only ate this after trying it. He and my mother battled over this pie during the holiday weekend. Both would sneak a piece so as to not let the other know more was being taken. You knew when one was taken though because everytime they would get a slice, you'd hear a giggle coming from the garage where the second fridge is. Good eats.

I didn't think I liked coconut cream pie, but I made it for a good friend who requested it for his birthday. One taste of the filling and I was hooked! It took great restraint to put the rest into the pie. I've made this several times, and every time is great. I do use real whipped cream for the topping though.

This pie is delicious! I used Mean Chef's pie crust recipe, and real whipped cream. Directions were easy to follow. Thanks for sharing.

We really liked this pie. It was very easy to make and my family like that it didn't have a meringue topping.
